UNIQUE ACCOUNT IDENTIFICATION
First Claim
1. A synchronization system, comprising:
- a first account having a first mailbox assigned a first globally unique identifier, access to the first account being contingent on validation of a shared username and a shared password;
a library of account operations, one or more such account operations configured to identify the first mailbox with the first globally unique identifier;
a second account having a second mailbox assigned a second globally unique identifier, access to the second account also being contingent on validation of the shared username and the shared password, the second account derived from an out-of-service account without native access to the library of account operations, the second account endowed with the library of account operations, one or more such account operations configured to identify the second mailbox with the second globally unique identifier.

Abstract
A synchronization system includes a first account assigned a first unique identifier. Access to the first account is contingent on validation of a shared access credential. The synchronization system also includes a second account assigned a second unique identifier. Access to the second account is contingent on validation of the shared access credential. The synchronization system further includes a library of account operations. One or more account operations are configured to utilize the first unique identifier when addressing the first account, and one or more account operations are configured to utilize the second unique identifier when addressing the second account.

18. A data-holding subsystem holding instructions executable by a logic subsystem to implement a method of synchronizing a native in-service account and a normative in-service account derived from an out-of-service account to a same device, the method comprising:
-
validating a shared access credential to open access to both the native in-service account and the normative in-service account; retrieving account items from the native in-service account with an in-service account operation configured to identify the native in-service account with a first unique identifier; retrieving account items from the normative in-service account with an in-service account operation configured to identify the normative in-service account with a second unique identifier. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
