I currently am running two e-mail accounts on outlook. I
would like for one e-mail account to have it's own folder
and the other account to have it's own folder to be more
organized. How do I create a folder so all incoming e-
mails go into that folder and vise versa with the other
account? detailed instructions would be greatly
appreciated
 
First create the new folder(s), then use the Rules Wizard to set up
rules to move messages from each account to the preferred folder when
they arrive. Say you have an account called "home" and you want to move
those messages to a folder called "Home mail". The rule to move those
messages might look like this:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
through the home account
move it to the Home mail folder
and stop processing more rules

You will want to add the "stop processing" command so that no rules
farther down the list will act on the same message -- sometimes
duplicates of the message are created in other folders if you allow
later rules to also act on it.
