Question about OUtlook!

[sparks219]

Hi,

I got two email accounts, one with my cable supplier, and one with Yahoo! Mail. I'm just curious if I could put the mail from my cable supplier to my INBOX folder, and put the mail from Yahoo! mail into the Yahoo folder.

I use OUtlook Express and Outlook, so does anyone know how to do that?

Thanks

Sparks

Click Tools, Accounts, click on the mail tab then click Add. Each account will have their own In, Out, Deleted, and sent boxes.

Blah, Blah Blahh, Blahh, blahh blah blahh, blah blah.

I did that and everything just went into the same inbox :"(

Could you describe what you trying to accomplish? What is the Yahoo folder? It's usually desiraable to have all your email going into the same inbox. After you have read it, either delete it or move it to a local folder.

I wonder...what is the speed of gravity?

Here is how do Yahoo mail. I have a Yahoo, Hotmail, and @home account all with different folders.
________________________________________________________
From the Tools menu, choose "Accounts."
Select the "Mail" tab.
Click the "Add" button.
From the Add menu, click "Mail."
In the text box labeled Display Name, type your name and click "Next."
In the Email Address box, type your Yahoo Mail address (be sure to include "@yahoo.com") and click "Next."
Select "POP3" to answer the question "My incoming mail server is a…."
In the Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server box, type "pop.mail.yahoo.com"
In the Outgoing mail (SMTP) server box, type "smtp.mail.yahoo.com"
Click "Next."
In the Account Name box, type your Yahoo! Mail address (without the "@yahoo.com").
In the Password box, type your Yahoo! Mail Password.
If you want Outlook Express to remember your password, check the "Remember password" box.
Do not check the "Log on using secure password" box.
Click "Next."
Click "Finish."

Hmm, I just tried that and it didn't work. I use a separate hotmail account and it I assumed it would work the same.
Okay this is what you do. Either set a separate identity and switch users or create message rules (email filters). You can create subfolders and set all of your yahoo pop mail to filter into the appropriate folder.


Blah, Blah Blahh, Blahh, blahh blah blahh, blah blah.
