Hi

I would REALLY appreciate some help and ADVICE, even if you tell me that it cant be done, at least I will then be able to stop worrying about how to do it:-)

Ok, I have 5 Gmail accounts and two hotmail accounts that I would like to be able to view in OUTLOOK 2007. If it is possible, I would like to be able to have seperate inboxes for them all. I wasn't sure if this is possible without an exchange server???

I was able to achieve this with my two hotmail accounts by using the Outlook Connector tool. It simply adds to seperate inboxes so you can expand each one and see all your folders under each inbox.... I just cant get this to work with the gmail accounts. (it may not even be possible)

I have tried setting up the gmail accounts as http, beacuse this does add the mailbox like I want it to but I dont know the correct server URL for this to connect.

Can anyone please help, its been driving me CRAZY for a while?

I know I can craete seperate profiles for each but ideally it would be great to add all the mailboxes to one profile.

Many thanks in advance.

Brad
This is the very question I came to this forum to have answered! There has to be somone out there that can tell us how to do it!
What is the Outlook Connector Tool and where do I find it?

Thanks.
KellyWhy not just create Rules to direct mail to certain accounts to certain Outlook Mail folders?Hi Soybean

Yes, I understand this is possible to direct mail to certain folders but I would like to be able to send mail from each of these accounts and so will need the mailboxes set up. Plus each mailbox has subfolders within and so I would like to be able to view these from outlook too.

thatkelly - you can find the outlook connector tool from the microsoft website

Anyone else have any ideas? Perhaps I do need to have an exchange server......

Thanks againHere's an excellent reference on techniques for managing email in Outlook 2007: http://www.howto-outlook.com/howto/sortmail.htm. I believe the part of that reference you will be particularly interested in is the last section titled Directly assign the account a Folder Set.

Also, I've learned that if you change your gmail account to IMAP (can be done by logging of to your gmail account and entering Settings) and set up the account in Outlook, it will automatically create folders corresponding the folders you see in your gmail account if you logon to your account via web browser. But, if you're not familiar with IMAP accounts, I'd say the option mentioned above, i.e. Directly assign the account a Folder Set, will be most satisfactory to you.
