There is a command line option, -i <username> - should solve *your* problem.

But I got another one! I can`t get it to run AT ALL!!
I`ve tried a lot of stuff, but after configuring it for TCP/IP I
restart the program and it does`nt find my mailbox("..does not exist")
Sometimes it says that I have no access to the mail-system(???).
Other 16bits email-apps(like Eudora 1.44) works fine, but I would really
like to have Pegasus` features...:(

I`ve tried the 1.22 and the 2.0 beta, same problem. Anyone got a clue??
(I use Windows 95 Dial-Up(32bit winsock)

Thanks in advance!
