Outlook 2003 - Different pop accounts use different pst files

G

gencode

I have Outlook 2003, I have 2 POP3 accounts setup, lets call them POP1
and POP2...I have also created 2 PST files PST1 and PST2, when an email
comes in I want all POP1 emails to go to PST1 and all POP2 emails to go
to PST2.

Looked easy, after setting up the POP accounts and the PST files I went
to

1) Tools > Email Accounts > View Change existing Email Accounts
2) Highlighted POP1 and changed the "Deliver New Email To the following
location" to PST1
3) Highlighted POP2 and changed the "Deliver New Email To the following
location" to PST2

....well that did not work, they all go to the PST2 folder...it seems
that you can only have mail delivered to one PST folder.

Is there a way to make Outlook 2003 put different pop3 accounts in
different pst files using "one profile"

I guess I could make a rule, but really did not want to have to do
that.

Thanks, Ed,

You can have only one default delivery location. Use that for your default
POP account, and use rules to move items from other accountns into the
desired folders.

Thanks Sue for the reply...that's what I thought...I just decided to
use 2 profiles.
