Based on cakePHP's data model conventions, to setup a foreign key I would specify a column with the source_table followed by an _id. I have an accounts and an account_messages table. Now the complication arises when I need 2 foreign key references to the same accounts table. Specifically I need to keep track of the account_id in the TO...
