I have a friend who has two email addresses; one for (and at) work 
(using Outlook) and one personal, at home (Outlook Express). She asked 
me if she could set up her work machine to also access her personal 
mail. Knowing Outlook Express and using identities ... switch 
identities, etc., I figured ... sure, Outlook should have the same 
capability. So we attempted to do that.

To my dismay, I found that Outlook doesn't have such a thing as 
Identities, BUT it does have the ability to define more that one email 
account .... So that's what I did, I added the additional account...

BUT, I found further to my dismay that you can't setup a separate 
inbox, so all of her personal email ended up mixed in with her work 
email.

I undid what I did to remove the confusion it caused.

The question is ... how can I setup Outlook so that there's a separate 
inbox for each email account ... sorta like OE's identity feature.
