I have Outlook 2007 with Windows Vista OS and have 3 user accounts set up in
Vista. Is there a way to use outlook on my user acct and my wifes separately
so we can update and synchronize our own info?

Diane,
I've created the accounts but what I find annoying is that emails for both
accounts show up in the same inbox. With my Office 2003 I had two totally
separte inboxes, junk mail, etc. With 2007 I cannot find out how to
configure Outlook with two, separate accounts.

It should work exactly the same as with Outlook 2003. Do you share a mailbox
on the server? Ie, use the same login for the mailbox but each have your own
email address?

Yes. Through comcast you can have up to seven separate email accounts. we
have two laptops with separate email addresses but on the main PC we run two
accounts - "mnt....." and "cas...." Right now both of those accounts are
dumping into one large inbox which makes it very confusing. I'd like to have
a set up like my old 2003 where I was able to select which account I opened.
Thanks for the help,
Terry

As Diane said, Oullook 2003 and Outlook 2007 work exactly the same way with
respect to accounts If your two addresses both dump into the same Comcast
mailbox on Comcast's server, then Outlook 2003 would not have been able to
tell them apart either. Configure Outlook 2007 exactly as you configured
Outlook 2003 and it will work exactly the same way.
