I need help with Outlook Profiles

[Scottie K]

I've switched from Outlook Express to Outlook. Microsoft Office Standard
Edition 2003. I had three different e-mail addresses in Express, and was
able to get e-mails to these three separate accounts by 'switching
identities' Now with Outlook, these are referred to as 'Profiles' OK -
that's fine. Here's what I've encountered, however. I've set up my three
profiles with three different addresses. But mail to all three of the
addresses all comes into my main account. When I close Outlook, and log on
either of my other two profiles, no mail is awaiting me at all - every piece
of mail - no matter which of the three addresses is used - goes into my main
account.

How do I configure it so that the mail for each specific address profile
goes only into that profiles' in box?

thanks!

Not an answer, but do you really need various profiles?
You can use rules within OL to move specific mail to different folders. You
can also use the menu to send a new msg from a specific address
In OE you could easily switch Identities in OL you have to close then
restart in the specific profile

If you're seeing this, chances are you have NOT created three profiles.
You've created three accounts in ONE profile.

When I close Outlook, and log on either of my other two profiles, no
mail is awaiting me at all - every piece of mail - no matter which of
the three addresses is used - goes into my main account.

Use rules to sort the mail into folders based on the receiving account.
