two e-mail addresses

[2e-mailaddys]

I was told to create a new e-mail address to rid myself
of spam. So I called my ISP, and created a new addy.
Now, they said I could not get rid of the first one(so
how is that going to help with spam?). The best I could
do is make my new address the default, so I did.

So now my sub-address is my default. I asked, how do I
recieve both e-mails separately?

They said to click on the send/receive arrow and click on
the old address to bring it up, and dump all the stuff on
the old e-mail address.

I logged on today, opened outlood express 6 and I got all
the usual mail on the same page with no differenciation
beween addresses.

To look at them, you can't tell what came to which
address! Well except knowing who I gave the new addy to.
But they were all mixed together.

How do I separate them?
Doing the whole send/recieve click on arrow, choose addy
does not make any difference!

I thought, now only mail to my new address would show on
the inbox page, and I would have to make a special
effort, clicking on the "old e-mail addy" under
send/receive. But it all showed up on the main inbox
page!

I know I repeated the same "Q" here, I just wanted to be
clear.

Hope you can shed some light on this confusion!

Create two folders under the Local Folders (Outlook Express,
similar in other email programs) and then create message
rules to direct each account to its own folder.

I'm not certain how to "clean up" the email messages which you have already
received, but to take of any future messages, have you considered using the
filtering system in Outlook?

Go to the Toolbar and go to Tools | Rules and Alerts.
Go to the tab called, "E-mail Rules" and click on "New Rule".
Follow the steps and save.

When you create and apply the rule, Windows will ask if you
want to sort all the messages in the inbox.

Click on File>Switch Identities, then press the manage identities button and
follow the prompts to create a separate identity for your new email. I
currently have 6 identities set up, for business, personal, etc. even including
my throwaway hotmail account. In case you're wondering I just got a "real" ISP
and am in the transition process from AOL. You can even have different
Newsgroups for each identity(to hide the porn<G>).

HTH,

If you don't want to use the old email account, just delete it out of
outlook express and never be bothered with it again. Just because your isp
assigned you a "master" email address doesn't mean you have to use it, or
even have it setup in outlook express.
