I have email with two different addresses using two computers. One
computer uses Netscape Mail and the other uses Outlook Express. The OE
machine is the new guy on the block with the new address. Since
configuring the OE machine with its address, I get both addresses on
both machines. I want each machine to receive only the specified address
for each one. What have I done in the setup of OE to cause all email to
come to both machines?
Thanks for any help offered.

You can set up message mail rules in the rules section that is under the
Tools, Options.
The main downloading of email is in the Accounts set-up.

The way you handle multiple e-mail addresses in Outlook Express (OE) depends on how the
ISP creates them. There are 3 different ways depending on the ISP:
1) Multiple e-mail addresses feed into a single server POP3 account. In this case, all
users use the same Dial-up Networking connection (DUN) and same Logon Using in OE at
Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Servers. Each OE account has different settings in
Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, General. This is the poorest ISP support. You must
use message rules to not download messages for the other e-mail addresses. You will be
limited on properly separating the mail.
2) Separate server POP3 accounts, single ISP logon. In this case all users use the same
Dial-up Networking connection (DUN) but different Logon Using in OE at Tools, Accounts,
Mail, Properties, Servers and General. This is the adequate ISP support. Often the first
mail account has the same name and password as DUN. You can use separate identities
(File, Identities) to keep your mail separate (best), or use Message Rules to sort
downloading mail by using "where the message is from specified account".
3) Separate server POP3 accounts, separate ISP logons. In this case each user uses a
different Dial-up Networking connection (DUN) and different Logon Using in OE at Tools,
Accounts, Mail, Properties, Servers and General. This is the best ISP support in that it
provides maximum privacy. You should use separate identities (File, Identities) to keep
your mail separate or separate Windows User Logons.
Sounds like you have a type 1 ISP.
