It's probably an ALIAS of the master account. You need to set up a rule to not download email that is not to your address.... Is such a rule available in Outlook? The OP didn't bother to mention WHICH version of Outlook that they use. In OL2002, it is going to download all messages BEFORE it exercises any rules against them. The only "rule" that I know of that prevents downloading the e-mails is to *not* have Outlook download only header (no bodies) or not download those that exceed some user-specified size. The OP needs to get 2 *real* e-mail accounts, not one of those cheap-ass aliased accounts because of a penny-pinching ISP trying to save on resources. |

Alternatively, the OP can enabled leaving messages on the server and create a rule that will delete those messages not addressed to the OP's mail address. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
