keeping e-mail inaccessible to others while outlook is open

[Guest]

I am required to use my personal e-mail account for work. In order to keep
track of calendars, tasks, etc, I have my account set-up through Outlook.
However when I am signed in to Outlook for the calendar, tasks, etc., this
then leaves my personal e-mail account vulnerable to access by other staff
members. Can I keep this feature available, but secure from others opening
my mail if they happen to be at my desk. Is the only option to sign-off? If
so, then I don't get notifications of meetings, deadlines, etc.

Not really... can you lock your PC when you're away?

If you're using a PST, you can password-protect it.
