Would like two separate email accounts to send & receive

[joydex]

I use Outlook 2003 - have a business email through a Microsoft exchange
server and an email through a POP account. I want to open Outlook and be
able to separate the accounts with both send/receive. If I create two
profiles - Outlook will not let me deliver the emails to two different
locations - if I change one - it changes both. I am a novice and need step
by step notes. Help!!!!

If you go to Tools>Options and click on the Mail setup tab there you will see
a button called Send/Receive. Click it. Create a new sen/receive group and in
the window that pops up click on one of your email accounts and select
"Include the selected account in this group". Under account options choose
both receive and send. Click OK at the bottom. Repeat these steps for your
2nd email account. Now on the Sen/Receive groups screen you should see the
two groups you just created. For each group you can select it and check or
uncheck the box below that says "Include this group in send/receive (F9)". If
you want that email account to send/receive every time you hit the
send/receive button or hit F9, check this box. If that box isn't checked,
then in order to send/receive for that group you must go to
Tools>Send/Receive and choose the group you want to send/receive. Make sense?
If not, you can view detailed instructions with pictures here:

Your suggestion won't help. Outlook coalesces Excahneg an POP into a single
set of folders. The OP should use rules to sort incoming and outgoing mail
into separate folder sets.
