OUTLOOK EXPRESS USER IDENTITIES

If there is more than one person in your house using the same computer for e-mail, each person can have a separate mailbox in Outlook Express.  This means that each person can have separate messages, contacts, and personal settings.  This is made possible through the creation of multiple identities.  Once the identities are created, you can switch among them without having to shut down your computer or lose your Internet connection.

To add a new identity

            1)        On the File menu, point to Identities, and

                        then click Add New Identity.

            2)        Type the name of the new user.

            3)        If you want to include a password for this

                        identity, select the Require a password

                        option, and then enter a password.

Outlook Express asks you if you want to log on as the new user.  If you answer yes, you will be prompted for information about your Internet connection, if you answer no, the current user remains logged on.
