Hi, i am trying to set up Outlook 2007 so that each different email adress goes to a specific user account, e.g. any mail addressed gary@myusername.freeserve.co.uk goes to gary's user account and so on for all members of the family so that we can each read our own private mail seperately. The help files i can find only seem to tell you how to do this on outlook express, which seems to have different menus and settings. How can i set it up so that this happens?
Any help appreciated, I`ve ran out of ideas.
Orange will only support Outlook Express as I found out when I had a query in setting up Outlook.
I'm still using Outlook 2000, hopefully not too much has changes in this area with Outlook 2007...
If you're using one computer for all users, there are Three options I know about for complete separation of e-mail accounts.
1) have a specific XP login for each user and set up Outlook for the respective e-mail account/s. Problem may arise here if any one user has more than one e-mail account and wants to keep them isolated.
2) have a single XP login. You can then set-up separate e-mail profiles for use with Outlook. Go to Control Panel and double click on the "Mail" icon. Create as many 'Profiles as you need (see Outlook Help under 'Profiles' as well). When you start Outlook next, you will be asked which Profile to open with, then click OK. Go into Outlook and set-up the e-mail account/s for each profile. Beware, any user who accesses the same XP account will be able to open any of the Profiles.
3) is a combination of the above. Multiple XP User accounts with multiple Profiles. If one XP user has more than one e-amil account, set up specific Profiles for each e-mail account. This option gives isolation of e-mail accounts and privicy as XP login will be password controlled.
