mine and my husbands email arrives in the same inbox

[Guest]

we have set up accounts for my husbands and mine email accounts (I think!)
but all incoming email goes into my account, for both of us. And outgoing
mail also goes out under my name only. How to split these up? so that his
email goes to his box? and my email goes to my box? Using Microsoft Outlook
in Windows XP. Just bought Microsoft Office with Outlook, Excel, etc package

Set up separate Outlook profiles and log into Outlook separately (be prompted
for a username and password), OR set up different profiles on the computer
and log in separately.

When you connect to the mail server, do you and your husband have different
usernames/passwords or do you both use the same one?

It all depends on whether your ISP has given you two truly separate email
addresses or whether they are aliases of the one master account. If your
email addresses are in the format (e-mail address removed) then they are
aliases of the master account username.isp.com. In that case you will have
to set up a rule which says if the recipient is NOT (e-mail address removed)
then do not download the mail, but leave it on the server. And set up an
opposite one on the other Outlook setup.

HTH!
