Then personality shouldn't be used for multiple things. Application terms
should have a 1:1 match with meaning whenever possible, not a many to one.
If there were separate terms for account and personality, then the meaning
would be much clearer.

Then why do folders and mailboxes have the same icon in the mailboxes
window? I just created both in a folder/mailbox on an IMAP account. As well,
when I move a mailbox into a folder, the folder icon changes to a
combination of both. Mail.app doesn't do this confusing nonsense. Folders
are folders, there is no bizarre secondary structure that has
characteristics of a folder, yet really isn't one.
