(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, enhancement)

Description

[Luiz-Otavio Zorzella]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; WinNT4.0; en-US; rv:1.4b) Gecko/20030507

It is, oftentime, desireable to have multiple email addresses that go for the
same inbox. Currently, if one wants to have multiple identities when sending a
message, one has to create multiple accounts (either mail or news) with
different email addresses. If the user wants to have Drafts/Sent messages go to
the same server, that needs to be configured in each of these.

It would be simple to have, under "Account Settings", a way to specify multiple
valid email addresses for this user, all all of these show up as options when
sending an email.
