Hi Ray,

That worked like a charm (I had been missing the first step).

Now that I have the account up and running -- I have another question.

Is there a way to create a desktop icon that will open the mail program
for that one account without having to go thru all of the Mozilla stuff?

I assume there must be an executable for the mail program that can be
pointed to that folder?

Thanks,
Sandy
