It seems so, that it is defined nowhere else, but why (almost)
everyone else got it defined somewhere (the faq seems to asume it).
What makes me wonder, is that the urfaust original version works by me
(and not only in my oort, i think in my previous version it worked too)

Sorry for adding to the confusion.
I first used setq to create mailsources and then used addlist to add my second
account entry.

See below

(setq mail-sources 
      '((pop :server "mail"
             :user "one"
             :password "onesdeepdarksecret")))

(add-to-list 'mail-sources '(pop :server "mail"
            :user "two"
            :password "sosecretthatiwouldhavetodosomethinghorridtoyou"))

It doesn't make sense that this works but the original fails.

You said you had

    (setq mail-sources '( (pop ...) (pop ...) ))

Are you sure you didn't have the following?

    (setq mail-sources '((pop ...))
          mail-sources '((pop ...)))

The two-line version will fail, the first one will succeed.

that was, what I was wondering about, too.

Many thanks, that fixed my problem.

I must study that FAQ more closely !
