Re: identities

Windows Mail doesn't support Identities. Mail from all account will go into
the common Inbox unless you set up Message Rules and separate folders.

Re: identities

And let me tell you .... this is a royal pain in the you know what... the
message rules work like crap... and the signatures that you setup for each
account don't work automatically, you have to manually insert them. This
was a ridiculous change in my opinion!

Re: identities

Any rule that moves or deletes a message needs to also have the action
"Stop processing more rules" which only stops it for that message.

Re: identities

Ok, sounds great... I'll try this, I missed this when I setup the rules.

I do have one other question... There is a rule that reads "Where the
message is from a specified account"
Since I have 3 email accounts in Windows Mail now, I wanted to separate the
Sent mail into different folders instead of it all going to one folder. So
I created a filter using this rule because it says "from a specified
account".. What I found is the new mail for these accounts were being put
in the SENT folder that I used in the rule.

Shouldn't this rule read "Where the message is to a specified account"
because it was sorting my incoming mail and not my sent mail...

Thank you
Christine

Re: identities

OE cannot automatically sort messages you send out. They will go to Sent
Items. You can make rule like:

Where From contains 'candt26@bellsouth.net'
Move it to Bellsouth folder

and apply the rues manually to Sent Items, but it will also move messges
sent to newsgroups from that account.

Re: identities

OK, it's been a month now and I hate the fact that there are no identities!!

I'm constantly sending emails from the wrong email address
Posting personal emails in newsgroups
Adding the wrong signature thinking I'm in another email address...

THIS SUCKS!!!!
another stupid move by a software manufacturer
