I have Outlook 2003. I used to have Outlook Express and could easily receive
different emails in different boxes. For example, my wife had an email
address and I had another, Her emails did not come in my email box. I just
had to go to 'File', then 'switch identity' and then we would get her email.
Can this be done with Outlook 2003?

Sure, use different email profiles, one for you and one for your wife. Use
F1 help for assistance with setting up profiles. Post back with any
problems after using that help.

But it still came to the main email box. I want it to go to a seperate box
all it's own. Like in outlook express. Here's another question you may be
able to answer and may solve everything. Can I use outlook express instead of
outlook? As in delete outlook and install express. If yes, can I get outlook
express off a windows CD? And thank you so much for answering my post, I
really appreciate it.

No one needs to run Outlook unless you want all of the features it offers.
If all you want is simple mail and news reading, then by all means stick
with OE.

To reinstall OE, go to Control Panel-Add/Remove programs-Windows Programs
and re-enable it from there. It was never uninstalled. You can uninstall
Outlook or not as you wish. Just don't open it. Be sure to set OE as your
preferred mail client under Control Panel-Internet Options-Programs.

then set up a Rule for each account. Tools-Rules and Alerts. BTW, I'm fairly
certain you would have had to do this with Outlook Express as well.
