Direct e-mail to user's accounts

[cargo]

I have an XP Pro laptop connected to an ADSL router and my e-mail address is in the form <[email protected]>. I receive spam into my Outlook 2003 inbox irrespective of what "MyName" is present so I know that everything's set up to make sure that the messages are filtered to me by "MyHostName".

I'd like to set e-mail up for family members such that I still receive my messages and:

[email protected] goes to the Outlook inbox of Jack's user account and

[email protected] goes to the Outlook inbox of Jill's user account.

I realise that some sort of filtering will be necessary at home (also to take out messages which don't start with "MyName", "Jack" or "Jill"). What's the best way to do this? I wonder if I'd have to have another PC attached to the network at home to act as a server (?) but would I need any special software? Could I do this with XP Pro?

I'm happy to google this but am not sure of "buzz" words to enter for the search.

Thank you.

Check with your ISP as to how many Email addresses are included in your contract/deal. Most give you about 5, in which case you can have an account/address for jack, jill, bill, ted & joe if you want.

Once you have that sorted out, Open the control panel in windows
Click on Mail
Click on Show Profiles
Click on Add
Type in the persons name you are adding, then click Ok.
Select "Add a new email account" then click Next.
You will now be prompted for account details such as Email Address, User Name & Password....all of which will be provided by your ISP.

Once this is setup and you click on Outlook, it will ask you who you want to login in as Ie; Jack or Jill. When you make a selection it will then open that users Outlook Profile that contains only their messages.

EDIT: Ohh.... The above only applies if Jack & Jill login to windows on that PC under the one/same account. If however, Jack has a separate windows login from Jill, then contact your ISP as above about a 2nd email account, however jack & jill will have seperate Outlook accounts/profiles automatically in their seperate windows logins so you wont need to do the bit in the Control Pannel.
