How do I get Postie to check multiple mail accounts?

The answer is “you can’t do that directly”

However, what you can do is have each separate inbox forward their mail to a central mail account which you then configure Postie to check.

For example you have 2 email accounts that you want your users to send email to: askmeaquestion@example.com and news@example.com

You then create a third email account (postie@example.com) that you don’t tell anyone about and your configure both askmeaquestion and news to forward every email to postie@example.com

You then configure Postie to check the postie@example.com email account.

Many people have this arrangement so that emails sent to each account get assigned different categories. To accomplish this you need to purchase the Category Per User AddOn  and follow the directions for configuring Multiple Inboxes.

If you are using Gmail you have a simpler option. With Gmail it will ignore anything after the plus sign (+) so if your email is postie@gmail.com emails to postie+mine@gmail.com and postie+yours@gmail.com will all show up in postie@gmail.com and you can is the Category Per User AddOn to assign different categories.
