different inboxes

I use Outlook 2003. I have two email accounts I have it access.

I would like to have the emails from these two different accounts arrive in
DIFFERENT inboxes, designated for each account. Likewise, I would like the
"SENT" box to only contain those emails that were sent from that account.

Is that possible.

Thanks,

JWB
 
Hi Jwb,

it is only possible if you use additional Outlook profiles.
I would like the "SENT" box to only contain those emails that were sent
from that account.

How to install different Outlook profiles in Outlook 2003:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=829918

You could (as bad alternative) create 3 PST files with different names like:

Personal Folder Account 1
Personal Folder Account 2
Personal Folder Account 3

and you can move the incoming emails by a rule (Tools/Rules Wizard) into the
different PSt files, but for the sent items, it works only as a copy.

So if it is OK for you, to make a copy of every email into the seperate PST
files, you could work with this 3 PST files in one profil, but 3 profiles
are much better (my meaning)

Not true, provided you disable the "Save copies of messages in Sent Items
folder" option.
 
Or take the simplistic approach and create seperate Folders and then rules
to move msgs to the appropriate folder
 
Hi Brian,

sorry, I ment, as a rule it works only as a copy.

On this site, your solution is described:
http://www.cam.ac.uk/cs/docs/faq/e40.html

but they also say it is a risk if you disable this setting:


"Note: the Sent Items rule can be disabled without warning if there is a
network interruption. If local Sent Items is disabled and the rule becomes
disabled, no copies of sent mail will be saved."
