different identities into different inboxes

[Jen]

At home I have Outlook Express and I am able to receive
emails into different inboxes for different my different
addresses. However, I cannot figure out how to do that at
my work. We have one computer at work (sad, but true) and
Outlook 2002 is loaded onto it. Everyone's email is going
to the same inbox. Does anyone know how set it up so that
I get my emails in my own box? I was on the phone with my
ISP for about an hour and they couldn't help me. Please
help!

Change ISP, I hope you dón't get support charges for
this :-S

Go to Start-> Control Panel-> Mail-> button Show Profiles-

button Add.

Here you can add your own "identity". Here you can also
configure Outlook to prompt you which profile you want to
open.

To protect your mail rightclick on Outlook Today->
Properties-> button Advanced...-> button Change
Password...

Hope this helps!

A follow up question to this...
I have seperate profiles but am having trouble switching between them. I have Outlook set up to prompt for which profile, however when I Exit Outlook 2002 and reopen I am in the same profile. When I start Outlook after I first boot up my computer I DO get prompted for profile selection.

Btw, WHY is Outlook designed to force me to exit to merely switch between profiles anyway??

The problem is because Outlook didn't actually closes. If you go to your
taskmanager you'll still see the outlook.exe process running. When you kill
this process you will be prompted again.

Of course this isn't the way to go. Most of the time the problem of Outlook
not closing can be tracked down to a faulty add-in. Reconfiguring, updating
or disabling the add-in will most likely solve your problem. Like for Norton
Antivirus disabling the Office integration speeds up the Office applications
and solves some closing issues. Don't worry for virusses; Norton will
kick-in anyway as soon as virus activity is messured.

You'll need to close Outlook to release the filelocks the outlook.exe
processes holds on files like pst-files and to clear memory as well which
increases security.
