How do I recieve email to different email addresses in Outlook?

In Outlook express, I receive email under three different identities. I can
easily switch between identities. How can I accomplish the same in Outlook?

Do you need different identities or just multiple email accounts? Outlook
doesn't use Identities but uses profiles. From the sounds of your post you
might just need multiple accounts in one profile but I might need more
details

You are probably right...I think I need just multiple email account. I have
a personal email, as does my wife and I also have a business email..How do I
set that up...THANKS in advance for your help..

My personal opinion is that you should have your business email in a
separate mail profile. I would also choose having my wife's and my mail in
separate profiles as well (and employ separate WIndows usernames to do so),
but it's not as crucial.

You can do that in the Control Panel's Mail applet

As Brian mentioned you might also want to setup different users for you &
your wife to keep all your settings & such separate. WinXP makes it pretty
easy to do and it works really well. We've got one machine at home that's
shared by four people and Outlook, along with the other apps, handles it
wonderfully.

And the best part of it is that the kids can't mess the computer up by
downloading something they shouldn't!
