Can I use Outlook and GW on the same machine, at different times

[Rod]

I have used Microsoft Outlook for many years, and love it. However, the
place where I work is really into Novell, and so they will be forcing us to
switch to GroupWise. I have read that these two email clients do not play
nice with one another. However, besides the email I will be getting at work
through the GroupWise Post Office, I also want to be able to receive the
email that I normally read through the university account I have. I can
connect to the university account via IMAP, and I would rather use Outlook
to do that. So, what I thought I would do is use GroupWise (GW), read my
company email; then get out of GW and get into Outlook and read my
university email, etc.

In other words, I want to only be in one email client at a time, exit out of
that one before going into the next one, etc. Can that work? Or will each
email client try to replace whatever plumbing exists to uniquely support it?

try it and see - you should be able to have both installed at once - but if
you are on a corporate computer, will they allow both?
