Run Mail as another user
Authored by: Bookman on Nov 14, '03 04:48:26PM

The hint isn't just for Panther, I think (correct me if I'm wrong), but will work in previous versions of Mac OS X as well.

But, you are right--if you have Panther, it seems that about the same amount of typing would allow you to switch users using Fast User Switching, which is *seriously awesome,* IMHO. :-)

Run Mail as another user
Authored by: elmimmo on Nov 15, '03 08:16:26PM
No. I did try sudo -u second_user /Applications/Mail.app/Contents/MacOS/Mail in Jaguar like 6 monts ago, but second_user does not ave permissions to use first_user's windows server.
