Can I receive two different providers through my outlook

I have a work account through sbc and at home I use charter. While at work I
would like to receive through outlook my sbc mail as well as my charter mail.
Can I make this work. Last time I tried it, it only worked for sbc and I
thought maybe it was because sbc is my service provider here.

If each account has a separate POP mail server, it's easy. Click on Tools /
E-Mail Accounts and setup your configuration for each one. By default,
Outlook erases messages from the server once they're downloaded. By using
More Settings / Advanced under Delivery set Outlook to leave the messages on
the server so whether at work or home, you'll have a chance download them.

I receive mail from 4 different mail servers on 3 devices, including a
handheld. All using Outlook.

Don'tcha love technology? :)

Hope this helps.

Create two accounts, one whose SMTP server is the SBC server and one whose
server is the Charter server. Authenticate properly to each. Use the
account appropriate to your location.
