Good day.
In my second week of evaluating Balsa, first with v. 2,49, now with
v. 2.10.
Although it has a few rough edges, overall it seems fairly stable and
robust.
With the other MUA's that I have used it is possible to open more than one
instance simultaneously by adding a command line flag, creating separate
configuration files and, optimally, separate directories for each instance.
Have not found any similar command line switch for Balsa.
Tried hanging the $HOME environmental variable before invoking Balsa.
Balsa ignored it completely and used the standard ~/.balsa/config file
instead.
Am able to run separate instances (but not simultaneously) by linking
different directories to ~/.balsa before invoking the binary. Although
this works, it is cumbersome and sub-optimal.
Any ideas?
Thank you.
