 Directly assign the account a Folder Set
====This can be used to give multiple POP3 accounts on the same Outlook their own mailbox ==== A new and very cool new feature (it’s in my top 5 of best new Outlook 2007 features) in Outlook 2007 is that you can directly assign an account its own dedicated folder set. This dedicated folder set contains the following default folders; Because the account has now its own folder set, all the emails are automatically stored in the corresponding folders without the need of configuring anything else like for instance rules. So also your Sent Items are automatically separated by using this technique. Setting it up is also very easy; > I recommend to store the pst-file in a location that is also included in your backups. See [|this guide] for more information on that. > I also recommend to name the pst-file after your account so .pst > See [|this blog post] on how to lookup or change your account name. In contrast to using rules to separate your email, you’ll still be getting an envelope in your Notification Area when a new mail arrives. You can create additional folders and rules to further organize your mails. The accounts still share the Contacts, Calendar, Journal, Notes and Tasks folder of your main folder set. You can of course create additional ones if you want. Flagged items will also show up in the To-Do Bar. The changes are instant although you still need to move your already received emails. I would recommend creating a [|Search Folder] for that in your original pst-file where the messages were received.
