Can you set up a several Outlook accounts that traverses all ID's in XP?

I know in Outlook Express (I think), you can set up different ID's and
have people share OE all the while being under the same XP account.

Is there a way under Windows XP using Outlook (not Express) to have
multiple ID's to switch to so people can get their email? Or must I
set up a different XP ID and then a different Outlook account set up
under the XP account?

My goal would be to let any user of XP (we have 3) to be able to
access their Pop3 email (via Outlook) regardless of which XP account
the user is signed into (home user and 1 PC).


Thanks,
Patty

You can either have each person use a different Windows username or you
could create three mail profiles under a single Windows username. It's your
choice.

Personally, I think it's a bad idea to have multiple Windows users if you're
going to allow people to use any of them they please. What's the point?
