The way I have done it, because I use maildir's (through offlineimap) under ~/Mail, my folder-hook's are simply folder-hook <foldername1> set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" folder-hook <foldername2> set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" folder-hook <foldername3> set from="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" I have not tried this with GMail account or similar yet, but if I get a chance to, I'll let you know what I find. -- Anders Karlsson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> All-Round Linux Tinkerer & RHCE
