David,
First of all, Outlook will not allow you to create a second folder called
Inbox. It will either warn you to choose another name or mark it as Inbox2
or something like that.
The easiest way to accomplish your need is as follows.
The next time you get a message intended for your employer, press the
Applications key and arrow down to Create Rule.
You will have several options to choose from but I believe that the best
sorting is by either subject matter. I am assuming that the messages
intended for your employer would have different titles than those of a
personal nature.
With that in mind, press Enter on Create Rule.
Carefully follow the steps. The first one should read something like, "When
I get messages from (specific sender) or "When I get messages containing"
(specific words)
You will need to create a folder when the time comes. You can edit the
information in the field to meet your needs.
Continue tabbing through the various options until you get to "Send to a
Folder" and press Enter on that option.
If you don't have a folder already created, just tab to the list and arrow
up to the top. If you Shift Tab once, you will be on Create New.
Enter the folder name and follow the prompts. The system will take you back
to the main display, once the folder has been created and the Choose Folder
option will already be lined up on the new folder. Continue tabbing and
you'll find a final Okay button. If all of the fields have been created
correctly, you'll hear a message reading, "Success!"
CREATING FOLDERS NOTES:You can even put a folder within your Inbox but I
don't recommend that because it's more difficult to get to. In Outlook,
folders are arranged in levels. The primary folders, those created by the
program itself, are Level 1 while any you create are Level 2. If you create
a folder within a folder, that would be considered Level 3.
It would appear only if you had the main folder open.
Now, if by any chance the folder ends up in the wrong place, Outlook will
allow you to "move" the folder.
To do that, just use Control Y, find the folder, press Enter on it and then
press Alt F and arrow down to the Folder Submenu. Press Enter and arrow to
Move "folder name" and press Enter again.
Now you can move the folder by arrowing up to where you hear something like
Personal Folders. Press enter and the folder will now appear in the main
personal Folders tree where it belongs. What you have done is to create a
sorting rule which will automatically direct any messages with the
conditions you have chosen to be sent to that specific folder. That is, I
believe, what you are trying to accomplish.
I hope that this explanation helps.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Two in boxes in outlook 2003
Hi;
How do I set up Outlook 2003 so that I have two in boxes. I have my personal
email and the employers email. I am sure someone has spelled out the
procedure. I found the help file less than helpful.
If someone would point me to the instructions I will be very appreciative.
