Problem :
As per my work requires, I manage lots of eMail accounts which includes My personal account, My work account. I have forwarded all emails from my personal account to my work account, so that I just need to check one account only. I have created accounts in outlook for both my personal eMail and my Work eMail.
But it creates a big problem now. Whenever outlook performs Send/Receive it receives two copies of each mail from my personal account.
- Originally from my personal account.
- Forwarded copy from my Work account ( Since I have forwarded all mails from my personal account to my work account.)
Solution :
What I actually want is
- I want to be able to send eMails from both my account.
- I want to receive mails only from my Work account ( Because my work account will also have forwarded copy of mails from my personal account. )
Follow the steps below to achieve above :
1. Go to Tools –> Options
2. Go to Mail Setup –> Send Receive
3. Click Edit
4. It will list all your accounts in left side pane.
5. Select the account. It will show you Account Options for send mail items and receive mail items. If you just want to send eMails using this account than check the Send Mail items and uncheck the Receive mail items.
6. Press Ok –> Cliose –> Ok.
And you are done. :)
