Original Redmine bug id: 5996
Original URL: http://redmine.yorba.org/issues/5996
Searchable id: yorba-bug-5996
Original author: Jim Nelson
Original description:

Although we use the account's email address for the data directory in
~/.local/share/geary, it's not a great idea to use that address internally as
the user's actual email. Instead we should store the value in the .ini file
and use that.

multiple accounts (Open)
related to geary - 6356: Account identifier instead of email address (Open)
