Hey everyone,

I have an inbox set up where all my worker's emails all go into the same
general inbox. So I have like emails comming in from 3 different email
addresses, and I use rules to filter out emails to different folders. I've
been having this problem where if someone CC'ed one of my workers, 2 emails
would go to the person that it was sent to, not cc'ed to. The person that
was CC'ed wouldn't receive anything.

If anyone has any sugguestions on how I could solve this problem, please
post here. Any information would help. Thanks

My suggestion is that you deliver each address's messages to its own unique
mailbox so there is no confusion and everyone will get his or her own
messages.

How would I make new mailboxes for each of my email accts?

I run Outlook through my server, and I still want to be able to see all
mailboxes and folders from all the computers in my office. Is that still
possible?

Clearly that would depend on the mail server. If you run it, you can create
whatever mailboxes you want. If an ISP runs it, contact their sales office
and ask them how you can get separate mailboxes for each employee.

I run my emails through LunarPage's webmail server. I have mailboxes
created for each of my email addresses. Is it possible to have seperate
mailboxes appear on the side window, and how would I go about doing that? I
know we have to do more than just create a new email account.

What do you mean by "separate mailboxes on the side window"? Are you
speaking of the Navigation Pane (or Outlook Bar, depending on your version
of Outlook - I don't see where you've mentioned it)? ARe the accounts all
POP accounts? If not, what type of accounts are they?
 
They all all POP3 accounts, and by the side window, I'm referring to the
"folder list" window. I'm using Outlook 2003, also

All POP accounts in a mail profile use the same default folders. If you
wish mail being received by a specific account to be moved to a folder other
than your default Inbox, you'll need to create a rule to do it. Outlook
2007, however, has the ability to assign per-account Inboxes.

So, I'm bascially forced to use Outlook rules to filter out my emails then?
Unless, i get outlook 2007, where I'll be able to make seperate inboxes
linked to each account?

Yes. What's so onerous about using rules?

Yes.
 
Because Outlook doesn't let me seperate emails with CC's. Example
If someone sends this email and CC's anther person, it will show as the same
exact header for both emails.

To: (e-mail address removed)
CC: (e-mail address removed)

So, the way Outlook runs the rules is by priority, so if i have a rule that
moves emails sent to (e-mail address removed), the rule will automatically move both
emails to his/her folder.
