Not me! I am trying to help a computer- novice friend. She has Win 98
and OE, and a Freeserve account.
Three people use her machine, and she wants them to have addresses like:
user1@nodename.freservce.co.uk
user2@nodename.freservce.co.uk
user3@nodename.freservce.co.uk
I have configured her Win 98 to allow all three users to sign on as
themselves; but setting up OE to handle their mail separately is
problematical - the helpfiles and on- line support from MS are not
clear; other than to suggest "phone your ISP" :-(
I've managed to set up a older for each, with rules that sort inbound
mail appropriately, but not found how to give them their own identity
for outgoing mail.
No doubt it's easy when you know how, but, as I've never used OE before,
I'd appreciate some help, please.
Her birthday was last week; had I though, I should have bought her a
copy of Turnpike...
