hi,

 i upgraded from an older version to Pmail 4.61, but i don't know how to switch between my user names. I have 6 mail boxes. When I start Pmail, i can use one of my mail boxes, but I need to close pmail, an reopen again to open an other. There was an option in the File menu to switch the user, but i can't find them. Now.. how to get it back?? :)

In winpmail see Help menu, Commandline options. Either use identities or use -ms on commandline and run multiple instances as long as they are not using the same mail folders at the same time. The change user function is not in 4.51 or later and -ms is actually better.

I have three different users and setups and have three desktop icons, each for an account and each icon labeled so I can use 1 or more when needed or run all three with each one checking and sending mail at the specified intervals and use idle time set so I am not disturbed while actually preparing mail messages.  Each has own messages store and settings and signature files that way.

It may be all you may need is just different identities and use of the -id switch to startup as your primary identity but you can have all checked at mail check intervals. SMTP servers can be same or different and must be also configured.

It has been asked and explained yes: but not since 4.61 release. User was coming from 4.41 or older to 4.61 in one leap so much may seem new or different to the user. If a change in OS was also involved there may still be other questions also.

Thank You! I tried it, the -ms option works!

 

But it's complettly unusable for me. All mail boxes opened in the same time.. To many icons on the task bar.. :(

 

I had a backup from my old (and a bit unstable :) v4.41, i copied them  back.. The new version is not for me..  :(
