Hello John and all. I did mess up a bit but in essance what I said was true grin. yes you do set up the second account in mail in control panel. You do stil have to go into accounts in tools menu thoughafter opening outlook and choosing the profile you want to go into. My bad for explaining it that way I think I was just mixing up outlook and outlook express but me and my wife are in the process of unpacking after a move and the brain is kind of fried grin. It is fairly simple to google email providers pop and smtp servers and other info.

Unfortunately, Matt isn't quite on target with this. The only way to effectively set up different accounts with Outlook is in the Control Panel. The key word is Mail and that will take you directly to the various accounts in Outlook unless you have another program which has been designated as your primary e-mail tool. As matt had indicated, it looks like you can set them up directly in Outlook but they don't work for some odd reason. You have to set up each account individually. there's almost always one called "Outlook" of course. Now here's a very important point. When you are setting up these accounts, there is a check box indicating that you want to be prompted for which account to use. If you are using Verizon as I am, there is a setting in the additional options section which has to be checked as well. That one indicates that authentification is required. Once you have successfully set up these accounts, you will have the option of creating separate folders, contact lists and so on for each individual account. I got this information from someone right on this list by the way.
