Segregating e-mail from two accounts

J

Joe McGuire

Using OL 2003 I am getting my personal e-mail from one pop3 account and my
business e-mail from another pop3 account. Is there a good and simple way
to set up my inbox to keep them separate? I'd like to be able to sort the
Inbox by whether the e-mail was sentot me at the first pop3 vs. the second.
I tried using the Field Chooser to add "To" to the Inbox. However the
results are disappointing. Some e-mail shows up as to me@pop3number1, some
to me@pop3number2, which is pretty much what I'd llike. But the vast
majority are to me using many variations of my name, even including obvious
mispellings. When I send e-mail I of course can select which account to use
for the transmission.

Can you suggest a better way to accomplish this? Is there a way to easily
toggle between the accounts? If so, that would be great!

I tried Profiles. I set up another profile but OL will not prompt me to
select the profile when I start the program, so there seems to be no way to
switch to the alternative profile. Any help would be appreciated!

Set up a new folder for one of the addresses then use a rule to move any
incoming mail from that address to the new folder.
