Hi any help appreciated

Sharing personal pc at home with the missus. We both have ntlworld
e-mails, and I have set up both accounts in the Outlook-Tools-Options-mail services. So both e-mails feed Outlook - But I don't want to read each others mails.

BTW I'm using Win98, and Outlook98.

So I set up 'USERS' in Control panel, and limited access in Outlook to feed my mails in my 'User' and wife's mails in her User
profile. This works great - all NEW mails are now user specific.

BUT all mails already in Outlook (dowloaded from the NTL pop server) are visible when either user is logged in.

Can I restrict this? Can I create an extra 'Inbox'/'Mailbox' and direct mails from each account to the seperate Inbox. and then restrict access by user? Have seen this in Outlook, but maybe 2000. I can't find the menus in 98 to do this.

THanks

Woz,

Not sure in '98 in 2k onwards you just setup the rules wizard to divert emails to a specific account to a user defined mail-box, should be under the 'Tools' menu.

i used to do this ... don't think there's a way round it.

buy XP upgrade (~£85) and then you get a much better setup - you both have seperate accounts which means seperate FULL outlook, IE settings (+history, favs etc), wallpaper ... etcetcetc.

alternatively, just use yahoo or hotmail.

or

get two seperate POP3 Accounts and set Outlook so you have to pick who you are before you start (see mail in control panel)
