Default Running 2 Outlooks

Hello, my company has merged with another and both are using Outlook and I am
required to carry two active e-mail addresses/accounts and I work out of both
simultaneously. Currently, I have one open through the application on my hard
drive and the other I access through the web. I would be great if I could
have both open at the same time running on the app.

Is it possible to 2 Outlook applications open pointing to different servers
at the same time? -- Hopefully curious...

Not if they are 2 Exchange servers. It sounds like you are accessing 2 Exchange accounts. The only way to do it is to continue doing what you are doing or have separate profiles for each Exchange account, but you cannot have both profiles open at the same time.

Couldn't he access one of the Exchange servers with an IMAP account?

yes... imap is one solution. If they are 2 accts on one server, adding the
second acct as a second mailbox in the profile (and give the main acct send
as rights to it) will work.
