Change username

You can't change a Pegasus Mail username but if your original installation was in single user mode you can change it to mult-user mode which then allows you to add another user.  Users are completely independent from each other so what you are trying to accomplish is important.  If you want all existing mail to be available to the new user (keeping in mind that any replies will come from the new email address) then you want to reconfigure the current user.  If you want the new user to start with a clean slate while maintaining the current user then you will need to convert to multi-user mode.  See this thread for details on that:  http://community.pmail.com/forums/post/20179.aspx

Note that these instructions assume that you want to move the current mail and settings to the newly created user.  You may not want to do this so post back if unsure how to maintain the current user and add a new one.

If you go multi-user be sure to make a backup of your mailbox directory first.

How can I change a username/internal email address? Is it easier to simply create a new one? How would I do that?
