Is there a way to have two email accounts on Outlook Express 6. I know I can
have different identities on Outllok but I want to have two seperate programs
running, one with my email and the other with my wifes. Two icons on my
desktop. I hope this makes sense. Thanks Chris

Whatever your ISP offers. Mine allows 7 different accounts with no extra
charge. I'd give them a call.

It's possible to have two instances of OE open at the same time, yes, but
they must both be opened to the same identity.

You could use Tom Koch's little script to force an identity log-on and put a
shortcut for each identity (user) on desktop:

You can run a separate program to check for mail.
Either of these free programs will get headers and allow message deletion.

SMB will display a popup message when mail has arrived and magic can open
the main screen when mail arrives.
