Iam a newb with Outlook and have searched on here for a solution to my problem.

I am using XP home edition and Outlook 2000 with update of SP3. My ISP
provides me with 5 email accounts, all of which are not aliases from my
understanding of what an alias account is. Mine are
"etc.

I am wanting to be able to access 2 email accounts, one with my nickname for
friends and forums and the other for my new business, while using my version
of Outlook 2000 without having to upgrade to a newer version.

I don't want to create a new 'user account' within XP, I want to be able to
access both email accounts from the one XP user account.

I have seen a suggestion on here under thread'Microsoft Outlook Profiles'
12/05/2004 by Russ to Thom,

I am in similar situation with 'Internet Mail Only', which Russ states does
not provide options of multi-profiles. Is there a way around this without
having to
a) create a new user account in XP
b) upgrade to newer version of Outlook
???????
Any assistance would be very appreciated.

No. IMO provides no capability for separate Outlook profiles. You must
create separate Windows profiles to have that capability or update to one of
the currently supported versions of Outlook.
