2 Idenities needed on Outlook

[Guest]

I have micro. Office outlook 2003. I would like to set up another idenity on
outlook. I would also like to get rid of my fast user switcher that was how
I was accessing outlook so I could have a personal outlook and then on the
other screen an outlook for only business. If you can tell me how to set up
2 idenities on one desktop only and then get rid of the other desktop (the
fast user switch desktop) I would really appreciate it. I didn't want my
business and personal email coming on the same outlook. I wanted the use of
two outlooks on one desktop. I don't have any information that I care to
keep in the desktop I'm trying to get rid of.
Thanks

Control panel, Mail to create another profile. Note you can't have both
profiles open at once. To delete the second account, go to Control panel
user accounts and delete it.

Outlook doesn't use "Identities" in the same way as Outlook Express. You can
have as many "identities" (email accounts) within one Outlook "Profile" as
you want, and they are useable all the time Outlook is open. If you want to
keep two email accounts entirely separate, then you must use Profiles. In
that case, you CANNOT switch from one profile to another without closing
Outlook and re starting it as each profile uses a different pst file.
