    Why not just create a "new identity" password protected? Then the entire identity is protected, all folders/emails.

    Hi, Keats ~

    In OE:
    • 'File' > 'Identities' > 'Manage Identities...'
    • Select indentity > 'Properties' button
    • Check 'Require a password'
    • Enter password > confirm > 'OK'
    • 'OK' again > 'Close'
    • Exit OE and reopen ;)

    Bruce,
    This will only work if he has different identites set up already.

    Hi, Aleekat ~

    That is not the case. I have several machines set up this way - works perfect. :)
