I have my email account set up in Outlook, but we have a problem in that my
husband also has his own email address, and when I set his account up, mail
he generated still went from my account. He than decided he would stick to
the log-in account on the C & W website, but he finds if he sends an email
from within a web page then it goes from my address. I have explained that
this is because of the way Outlook is set up, but he feels that we should be
able to have 2 separate accounts set up in Outlook and both should be equal.
I may have missed something, but I can't see how this can be done. Can anyone
enlighten me, please?

If your husband is using the webmail interface, how could that have
anything to do with Outlook which is a local e-mail client running only
on your computer and NOT on the host computer running the webmail
program?

Sounds more likely that you have only one e-mail account along with
multiple aliases to the SAME account. Check with your ISP to find out
if you are indeed getting *separate* mailboxes or just one mailbox to
which you can assign multiple aliases to point at it.

Fist, are you using Outlook or Outlook Express. In anycase, you can setup
morethan one profile and acct.
Also, sending his e-mail from a web based mail shouldn't have anything to do
with your Outlook, unless you are rerferring to sending a webpage or link by
the "Send To" feature, which then of course will call up your default e-mail
program.

He needs to log on to the computer in his own name.Then set up his account.
Outlook is different that outlook express.
