I started with Outlook Express 6 and have now got Outlook 2003. I found the
different Identities in Outlook Express very useful because they allowed me
to use different mailboxes. I would like to set up the same or similar in
Outlook 2003 but I cannot find a way to do it.
Is it possible in Outlook 2003, and if so how ?
Thanks.
 
Yes and they are called profiles. You can setup a new mail profile via the
mail applet in the control panel (select the show profiles button and don't
forget to configure Outlook to prompt for which profile at startup at the
bottom of the dialog).

Just to save you coming back and asking, Outlook 2003 doesn't offer the same
option in OE6 of File > Switch Identity. You have to close Outlook and
restart it to switch to the other profile.
 
Thanks - I will give it a blast.
