There is no limit to the number of different accounts you can set up under one Polarbar Mailer installation. You can use different accounts for different users or for different internet addresses for the same user. Each account has its own settings, its own folders (though accounts can be made to share folders by having "local" folders under one account and "remote" folders under the other accounts pointing to the first account's local folder directories), its own Filters, etc.

Create new account

Creates a new account for another user or for another internet address. If only the account name is specified, a directory by that name will be created under the MailData subdirectory of the Mailer directory and the account files and folders will be created in that new directory. The program refers to these as "local" accounts. If a full pathname is specified, such as "D:\My New Account", then that directory will be created if it does not exist and the files and folders will be created there. We refer to these as "remote" accounts.  The name of the account, as displayed within the program, will include the pathname for remote accounts but not for local ones.

 

Delete current account

This option, when used while a "local" account (the usual type) is open, deletes the account's directory, all of its files, folders, subfolders, and all their contents. The program warns you twice before doing so because there is no way to undo it after it's been done. When used while the current account is a "remote" one, this option has a less drastic effect. When you delete a remote account, nothing actually gets deleted except the entry in the Account.Index file and the account directory's Account.Settings file. The directory and its contents will still exist but Polarbar Mailer  won't see them anymore.
