At the moment, the device id is exactly that - fixed for the device, so I needed to allocate account level ids instead, I have done that - but they are not being used, because the daemon is too clever for its own good - and recognises that the 2nd account is actually pointing at the same Exchange account, and grabs the existing connection for it. One more modification, and hopefully that will sort it.... getting there slowly.
