I’ve used Yahoo IM for years and also AIM for over a year. I just downloaded and installed Trillium this morning (9/27/2004) and so far love it. Here’s my question..
within Yahoo I have ONE account but under that one main account I have different screen names (work, family, play). In Yahoo IM when I open the chat box to send a buddy an IM I have the option to choose which screen name this will be sent as. I don’t see that option in Trillium. It looks as though my only option is using the MAIN identity and nothing else. Any ideas?

you can sign onto different screennames with trillian but there are no options for doing what you say as far as I know. by the way its called trillian not trillian. well otherwise if you go into the connect thingy after connecting with one screenname you can go in again, type in a new screenname and connect to yahoo. I am not sure if there are any limits as to how many you can sign on but it should work with at least 3.

Hmmm…. I don’t really get what you’re saying. Do you mean you want to sign in under multiple Yahoo! IDs?
No — he wants Trillian to support his different Yahoo profiles under his Yahoo ID. Although the official Yahoo client supports this, Trillian does not. In fact, if you have different contacts under each profile, Trillian will merge them all into one buddy list if you login with your main Yahoo ID.
