How do I turn off email receive easily

Jack Folliard

OL2003 - there are times when I don't want to have Outlook to d/l emails
from a certain email account. What's the easiest way to "turn on and off"
an account from receiving email.

In OL2000, it was fairly simple - click on tools/accounts/properties and
uncheck "include this account when receiving mail or synchronizing"

I could find nothing similar in OL2003

Thanks.

I think I figured it out - it just takes about 3 more steps than in OL2000.

It's Tools/Send and Receive/Define Send and Receive/Edit/ - then uncheck
the account

thanks
