Organising mail accounts

M

Mark W

Im new to this so apologies in advance if the answer is simple. I have asked
my ISP to provide an Exchange facility so I can keep track of all my outlook
information on 2 p.c's and a laptop. I have managed to syncronise everything
(contacts, mail etc) and they provided me with a new email address which is
configured to the server. My two old email addresses are POP3 and they were
configured again after everything was started from scratch. My question is :
I now have a mailbox in the folder tree with my name, of which I have 3
Inbox's - 1 for each account. Is there a way I can create a new mailbox for
each of the 2 POP accounts, therefore making 3. So each account has an
individual mailbox. Sorry if this sounds a trvial question

In Outlook, all POP and Exchange accounts are aggregated under one message
store. Each IMAP account gets its own message store. Each HTTP account
gets its own message store. Each message store is shown as a separate tree.

If you want to separate received e-mails based on the account through which
they were delivered, use rules. Create a separate folder for each account,
like subfolders under the Inbox folder, named for each account. Use N rules
for your N accounts (i.e., a rule for each account) which is similar to:

Apply this rule after a message arrives
through the <accountname> account
move to <accountfolder>
[and stop processing more rules]

Do not add the stop clause if you want more rules to exercise against an
e-mail after it gets moved into the folder for the account's folder.
