How do I get email delivered to seperate inboxes for multiple ema.

[Guest]

I have two seperate email accounts with Comcast and want to receive emails
from each account in a seperate, inbox in Outlook 2003. I've created two
Personal Folders and each has an inbox and the other folders that go with a
Personal Folder. But email from both accounts will only be received in one
inbox.

All POP3 accounts gets their inbound e-mails aggregrated into one Inbox.
That is because you only have one message store. Whichever is
designated as the .pst file to receive your inbound e-mails is the one
where they will appear in its Inbox.

Create 2 folders somewhere in your default message store (the designated
to received inbound e-mails). Then use rules to route them from the
Inbox to these special folders based on the account through which the
e-mail was received.

Or, don't bother with moving the e-mails and instead just add the
"E-mail Account" column to the message list pane (right-click on the
header row and add the column). Then you can see through which account
an e-mail was received.

Or, use rules to assign a category to an e-mail based on which account
through it was received and then customize your view to add automatic
formatting on items with that category to use a different font and/or
color.

Hello ChrisMcV.

I too created seperate personal folder's for my seperate email accounts but
no inbox folders were created as well the other folders associated with the
default personal folder. What am I doing wrong.

You can't use rules to move mail to other Personal Folders. All mail
comes through the default Inbox, and you can only use Rules to move
messages to folders *within* that Personal Folder file.
The only other option is to set up a different mail profile for each
account that will give you a complete Personal Folder File for that account.

HTH

Nonsense. I do it all the time.

Completely and demonstrably false.

Folders named "Inbox" are created automatically by Outlook for a PST that is
the designated delivery location. If you want a folder named "Inbox"
created in a PST that is not the delivery location, click File>New>Folder
(or click the down arrow on New and choose Folder or right-click the PST and
choose New Folder) and create one. You can then use rules to move messages
from your main Inbox to that folder. Keep in mind, though, that's there's
nothing magic about the name "Inbox" for folders other than the delivery
PST. Yuo can name your folders wharever you like and use rules to move
messages there.

I do beg your pardon. You certainly COULDN'T do this with earlier
versions of Outlook.

This seems to me to be a problem many people are experiencing. Myself I
would rather keep my business and personal emails seperate. I understand the
workarounds that have been suggested but there is one thing that bugs me.
Why would outlook not let you specify seperate datafiles for email accounts
on pop accounts when it does so for http accounts.

For instance when adding a http account (for hotmeil eg.) it sets up a
seperate data file with the inbox, draft, sent items folders etc. from your
pop account. To me then it would seem possible to specify seperate data
files for seperate pop accounts.

Will do some googling to find the answer

In Outlook 2002, I have tried the rules and the emails accounts on the tools
tab, neither work. When you change one it changes the other too. Could you
spell out the step to try something else.

another question, how can I seperate the sent mail to be from the two
seperate email addresses? They always say they are from the default account.

thanks if anyone can help
