Default Additional email account

If I add an additional email account to my current profile (POP server), how
do I access it? I do not understand how to switch back and forth between
email accounts in the same profile. Do I have to change the default email
account everytime I want to access the other account?

I understand that I can set up another profile, which is what I do. But why
would anyone set up multiple accounts with the same profile if it is
necessary to change the email account to default, close and reopen Outlook.
Or is there a better way?

It's not clear what you mean by "access" or even what version of Outlook you're using. Please tell us more.

Default Additional email account

If you add other email accounts all the mail will be downloaded to your
inbox.
If you wish you can create another folder and use rules to move mail from a
specific account to this folder
When you write a new msg you can choose which account should be used to send
the mail.
How you do this depends on OL version
