This might sound stupid but bare with me. I have an old 'freeserve' email address running on my Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 & i've just joined Sky & received a new email address from them & wondered if i could set this one up on Outlook Express 6. Or can i even have 2 addresses on the one client..?
One other thing is it complicated moving my Sky mail from their site to Outlook, bearing in mind i'm a numpty.....:embarasse

With Mozilla thunderbird you can or have oe and thunderbird for each account0

Yes you can have multiple mail accounts with Outlook. Just got to Tools/Email Accounts/Add a new email account and fill in the details. Then all incoming mail from any account will all end up in the same inbox. And it's most likely the same with Outlook Express too.0

I heard a rumour though that Outlook express was getting replaced with Windows Live Mail, so maybe it'd be better to change over now? It's much better IMO anyway!

Windows 7 doesn't have oe and I hear the European version wont have ie either due to compliance with EU
I switched to thunderbird and never looked back0 -
I use Outlook 2003 for multiple email accounts and it links to just about anything including AOL.
Another option is to use Gmail to read all your mail.Martin0 -
Just one other thing, on Outlook 2003 can i have one email address using POP3 & one using IMAP. Just asking as i believe my original one is using POP3 & IMAP is recommended by Sky for my Sky email....What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about !!!0

yes, because they are independant accounts, with their own properties, and you set them up as such within the one mail program

I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple
