The login section is for authentication with your ISP only - you just need the one login : password combination. What you're talking about is rewriting your email address for various boxes depending on where the mail originates, it seems. I don't have any great solutions for that, although /etc/email-addresses takes care of rewriting your From: line for you. Lines of the form: Timo: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Timobusiness: [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc. Should do that if you want to set up different user accounts for yourself. You can also set up your MUA's (mutt, balsa, etc.) to rewrite the From: line, and have exim ignore it. That way you could have one account with multiple MTA's depending on which account you want to appear to be sending from. I'm sure there's a better way, but I don't know it. Good luck, Steve
