email clients in Window XP Profession xp2

[Stephen Harris]

Can somebody enlighten whether window xp profession xp2 supports two or
more email clients (say, outlook express and incredimail or any others) to
be installed and run on it? I 've problem receiving emails on outlook
express and not incredimail. Their folder names are different. I
couldn't get to make them the same after various attempts. Any advice?

Thank you.

There is an incredimail add-on for Outlook not Outlook Express.
That means Outlook can have incredimail functionality but not Outlook
Express.

Outlook Express supports several different accounts. That means you can
have several different email account names display in Outlook Express.
Tools --> Accounts ---> Email --> Add
You provide the smtp server and pop server for your other accounts there.
That does not mean the other accounts will use incredimail functionality.

You can have several email programs on your machine. Only one at a time
is the _default_ email program. But you can change that. Often you can
import emails from one email application into another email application.

I didn't understand this part of your post:

"Their folder names are different. I couldn't
get to make them the same after various attempts. Any advice?"

They have different names because they are different accounts.
Maybe you can import all your Outlook Express into incredimail.
Then that email could in the future use the functionality of incredimail.
What program can use a file is determined by the suffix of a file like .dbx
Just putting a bunch of files which have different suffixes, meaning
different program functionality in the same directory does not transfer
which program operates or executes on a file; that is determined by
the file association that connects a suffix like .doc or .pdf or .ims
with a program that reads that type of file.

I really should wait 4 hours and ten minutes to answer this.
You can run two email clients, but only one can be the default.
I don't know what folder names would have to do with it.

One can install and use as many email clients as you want. One can even
run them at the same time.
