How am I mixing anything? I'm simply stating fact: you have a hodge podge of redundant and unnecessary email accounts/addresses. And attempting to keep them all maintained and attempt to provide yourself relatively easy access to them, and organization of them, it causing you much grief. Get rid of all them, and settle on one address/account hosted in a single place. Just for the record, and I'll put it on a separate line for easier quoting How many email addresses do you have Paul for which you are attempting to consolidate access? Please list the addresses, replacing @ with " at " to prevent spammer scraping. I'm just curious what we're really trying to assist with here. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
