310598 - More than one Identity per Mail Account needed

Status: VERIFIED INVALID

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Account Configuration, enhancement)

Description

[newsletter2]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-AT; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Mnenhy/0.7.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de-AT; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050920 Mnenhy/0.7.1

In Thunderbird, there is a button in the Account Preferences Window named "More
Identities". There you can add more sender email addresses (which is great if
you have a separate email alias for every purpose to find out quickly where spam
comes from). Such a functionality would be great for Mozilla/Seamonkey too.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the account preferences window.
Actual Results:  
The button is not there! ;-)

Expected Results:  
Show the button "more identities".

We have a "Manage Identities" button in the Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings
window...

In Mozilla 1.7.12 there is none. That's what this bug report is about. What
browser are you using?

Like Stephen said, this option already exists.

We don't back-port features to Mozilla.  As this feature is 'new' on the trunk
(1.8-ish, I think), you'll have to download a SeaMonkey build to see it.

See http://www.mozilla.org/projects/seamonkey/ for more info, please.
