Help with multiple email accounts in Outlook Express

Hey everybody, I have a quick question about Outlook Express. I have tried to research this and do google searches, but with no luck. All I want to do is have access to two separate email accounts in Outlook Express. I would like to be able to have separate inbox, bulk, sent, trash folders for each account. Instead, all I can do is create a folder to have the emails routed to a new folder, but they're still all combined. Is Outlook any different? What about Mozilla Thunderbird? Thanks for the advice.

when you go into o/ex click on file and then down to identities....click on it and then> add identity,then just follow what you are told on the screen....beginning with,type your name and do you want to switch to the new identity.

then you just add the details of your pop and smtp stuff and so on

Thunderbird will do it I think but it is quite complex for everyday email. I prefer Foxmail. Password protected, totally separate user accounts.

Thanks for the help. I knew about switching identities in OE, I would just prefer not to have to switch over when I want to check separate accounts. I will give firefox a try. Thanks again for the info.

when you say separate user accounts for foxmail, do you mean you have to log in as a different user to access another account, like with OE, or in the same windows can you have in/out/bulk boxes for more than one email account, and access them both at the same time?
