Details

Rather an unpleasant feature than an account:

My mail-provider allows me to create an alias of my e-mail address. My wife uses
this alias as her email account. However, she has to identify to the server with
the same user-ID as I do. We just filter mails according to the entry in the
"to" field. People sending mail to my wive's address actually send it to my
account, but they do not notice it, because they receive mail and send answers
to her mail Address.

Now, with Eudora (for OS 9), there was no problem creating two different
accounts with the same server name. Unfortunately, Mozilla does not allow me to
do so. This is rather sad and might force me to pay another 30 Dollars for an
Eudora-upgrade.

This is a dup of bug 65403.

In the meantime, Dieter, you could work around this by using two OS X user
accounts, or I think Apple Mail might allow this.
