    My wife and I each have our own e-mail address and we share the same computer. She would like to be able to immediately see her e-mail separately when she gets on the computer. No problem with us reading each other's e-mail and she rarely uses the computer except for e-mail.

    I had considered using a Message Rule directing her e-mail to a specially named folder. The only problem that presents is that when composing a message you have to select the correct "From" address. This appears to be simpler to me than creating a second user - since I have never done that. Would appreciate any comments/suggestions.

    Seems like you need separate identities ....
    for more info go, in OE, to Help > Index and type in Identities.

    Thanks Pete C. Exactly what I was looking for - a way to differentiate in the e-mail program only. All is well.
