Build Identifier: Thunderbird 1.0.2 (20050317)

I have two accounts on using the same SMTO server. Lets name them 
account1@vp.pl and account2@vp.pl. The are using the same SMTP server for 
outgoing mails: smtp.vp.pl. When I'm trying to send mail using account2 
mozilla uses as login username from account1. It causes error on the server 
side: 'from' field does not match user's account name. I could not find how to 
setup Thuderbird to use different username and password when using the same 
SMTP server. I think there should be possibilty to set username for SMTP for 
each account preferences separately.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Make two accounts on the same server e.g. onet.pl - must use the same SMTP 
server. Server as login name must use account name.
2. Send test e-mail from first account 1@hotmail.com.
3. Send test e-mail from second account 2@hotmail.com.

Actual Results:  
After seding mail from second account server returns error: 'from' field does 
not match username 1@hotmail.com. Sending e-mail using first account works 
good.

Expected Results:  
When sending mail from second account thunderbird should use second's account 
username when it login to SMTP server.
should be a dupe of bug 247454
