User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040929 Firefox/0.10 Build Identifier: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/thunderbird/nightly/2004-09-30-06-0.8/thunderbird-i686-linux-gtk2+xft.tar.gz Creating an account with multiple identities does not provide a per-identity interface for settings as "Composition & Addressing" or "Advanced Account Settings" but only once per account. For any but the first identity, important settings like the following can only be adjusted manually: user_pref("mail.identity.id2.doBcc", false); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.doBccList", ""); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.smtpServer", "smtp1"); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.compose_html", false); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.reply_on_top", 0); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.sig_date", 0); user_pref("mail.identity.id2.sig_bottom", true); These settings should be handled by the identity manager. The problem affects movemail accounts as well as pop accounts. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a new profile with one account selecting "Global Inbox". 2. Let Thunderbird start and go to Tools, AccountSettings, AccountSettings. 3. Use "Manage Identities..." to create a second or more identities. Actual Results: There is no way to adjust the outgoing server per identity nor anything for "Composition & Addressing" per id. Expected Results: There should be a full set of options for all "user_pref("mail.identity.id2..." settings per each identity.

The Account Settings | Copies & Folders settings also need to be included in the full identity UI -- including, specifically, these preferences: mail.identity.id2.fcc mail.identity.id2.fcc_folder mail.identity.id2.draft_folder mail.identity.id2.stationery_folder

Comment on attachment 165378 [details] [diff] [review] finish implementing multiple identity UI David, it's not as big as it looks. You can ignore the two new files (am-copiesOverlay.xul and am-addressingOverlay.xul). These two files just break out two xul fragments from am-copies.xul and am-addressing.xul so I can re-use them in the multiple identity UI without duplicating the XUL. The patch adds several tabs to the Edit/Add new multiple identity dialog for Copies & Folders and Addressing & Composition. I had to re-name some methods in am-copies.js and am-addressing.js (onSave and onInit) in order to avoid some naming collisions since both of these JS files are now loaded by the multiple identities UI.

The UI is indeed in place; I see it in version 0.9+ (20041112). Very nice, Scott -- thanks! This UI does not allow per-identity specification of the SMTP server; for this feature, see bug 202468. (In reply to comment #7) > The UI for identities should be able to help setting: > > mail.identity.id2.request_return_receipt_on The setting 'request_return_receipt_on' is not identity-specific. You'll need to open a new request for that.

Checked with version 0.9+ (20041112) After the current implementation of the identity manager some behaviours aren't correct: 1. Copies & Folders When adding a new identity to any account the prefs within this tabs aren't set to the current account. Instead the default account is selected. This should be changed to use the default values from the current account. Additionally no radio button is selected. We should activate e.g. '"Sent" Folder on'. The mentioned prefs apply to all entries on this tab. 2. Composition & Adressing Dropdown boxes for automatically quote aren't initialized corrently. Select and deselect the checkbox to see the UI bug. After deselecting the checkbox both dropdown boxes are grayed out. The second one won't become activated again. When using "select the quote" the second box should be activated. Under addressing the global LDAP settings aren't selected. Additionally I miss a pref. Scott, you have forgotten to include the availability to set the pref: mail.identity.idxxx.smtpServer => Reopen

file new bugs for any other issues. We won't be letting you set SMTP servers here. That's what Global inbox is for.
