Why a limit as low as 5?
Why a limit as low as 5?
I can understand a limit of 1: it means the software was not designed to handle more than one account. State gets conflated, the software goes awry, and all hell breaks loose.
But as soon as you support more than one, I can't see any reason to cap that at 5 - or any other number, for that matter.
ps, I have > 5 accounts, but I forward all of them to my main account, which has SMTP setup to be able to "Send As" any of those accounts. I'd imagine most users with > 5 accounts would be doing something like that already, making supporting > 5 accounts even less beneficial.
Do people need exactly five?
I don't think there's anything they could do to make anyone happy. People who want more than five will complain. People who have one wonder why they need up to five.
