Hi Aaron. Thanks for your bug report. A possible work-around for you could be: Having one Linux user for the work related stuff and one for the private stuff (thus separating all other user data as well). I work this way and switch using Ctrl-Alt-F7/F8 between them. That said, being able to set an identity of cause makes sense to have within EWS resource. My current workaround was to make the EWS resource the default then override it for the other accounts. Unfortunately, I'm stuck using Thunderbird for EWS now with bug #403903 which prevents EWS from being able to download email. (Note that with Thunderbird I have to use an external editor to write email because Thunderbird is unusably slow). To make this even better, it would be great if Kontact allowed me to change the identity at the time of writing the email as Thunderbird does. +1 for being able to set default identity for EWS account/folders. Currently I've overriden it fo each EWS folder manually, but that's tedious and probably not very reliable way. |
