Different users in XP, different aliasses, one ISP, Outlook XP/OE

[detune]

Problem: John and Peter using one PC with Windows XP Pro. No network connection. They log on using different names. Both use Outlook XP and/or Outlook Express to view there emails. John subscibe to ISP, and has Peter as an alias on his account. So both uses Johns' ISP username and password to connect to the ISPs' mail server. This means that both can see each other emails. Problem, they they want to see there own messages it their own Inbox. John can have message rules, but that means having Peters' personal folders, and then the same will happen with Peter.

Is there a way around this?

Yes .... set up another e-mail account with the ISP. ************************

Thank you iproute, that might be the only solution

Your ISP might offer a multi-pop solution where one account holder can create several different e-mail accounts with seperate mail boxes. That would be the best solution. There's nothing worse than sharing POP boxes!
