Guest Mark Posted September 12, 2007 Posted September 12, 2007 I have two addresses on the one account using outlook express. Whenever an email arrives ,addressed to one address, it shows up on both. As a test whhen I send a message to from one address to the other, I also get the message. How do I stop this? -- Mark

Guest PA Bear Posted September 13, 2007 Posted September 13, 2007 Re: emails If your email addresses are all "aliases" for one mailbox, you'll need to use Message Rules when using separate Identities/Log-ons (neither of which are really necessary). Most families (an intentionally all-encompassing term) will have one Mail Account with their one ISP subscription ($$/month for all). Most ISPs provide you with multiple Addresses for the Mail Account (e.g., Me@ISP.com, You@ISP.com, etc.) but all of them "point" to the one mailbox. As such, each Identity will need to use Message Rules so that only mail addressed to them is downloaded into their Inbox. The following refers to two addresses, but you should be able to follow it and amend for three or more. Me@ISP.com and You@ISP.com are aliases for one Mail Account (mailbox). In the Identity associated with Me@ISP.com, create a Message Rule stating, "Where To or CC contains You@ISP.com, Do not download it from the server" and place this rule at the very top of the list. Then create a similar rule for the Identity associated with You@ISP.com directing any messages addressed to Me@ISP.com not to be downloaded from the server.

How do I stop this? By asking in a group that has something to do with your email program?
