Thunderbird: Use identities to manage e-mail accounts

Web Worker Daily calls out Thunderbird's most underrated feature--identities--and explains how (and why) to use it.

If you have ever had another email address (info@whatever.com) forwarded to your "main" email (really-me@domain.com) and have been frustrated that your replies are appearing to be from really-me@domain.com instead of info@whatever.com, you'll want to understand how this underrated gem works.

By setting up identities, Thunderbird will reply to messages using the same account that received them--no manual account selection required. The initial configuration takes a bit of doing, but it's well worth the effort if you're juggling multiple accounts. —Rick Broida
