I think you and I mean the same thing - the difference is methodology, not
intent.

You are suggesting that the multiple identities ("profiles") be handled by
the mail client, while I am suggesting that the job should be done by
logging onto Linux under different user names. I believe that balsa can
handle my scenario now, and that further, this would be the more
theoretically correct scenario.
