Hi Daniel,

You are right ! I'm using Thunderbird for years now, and I didn't know 
this existed :-/ ! I remember, for some reason I don't remember, for a 
while I had to modify the main identity to use another Sent. When you 
make a new identity this gets copied I think if you don't modify it 
explicitely. That explains why new aliasses don't copy to INBOX.Sent.

Many thanks.

P.S. any idea why rawlog doesn't work ? Where should to log-file be placed ?
