I am so baffled can anyone help me?
I just set up a second email account with our server now I can't find out how to get to it.
My primary email account comes up but I don't know where the other one is. Is there some place to set up a seperate inbox for it.
Help...please.

Help is here!
OK, if you set up more than one e-mail account, you should be pulling up a dialog box to make a choice everytime that you start up Netscape.
Since that is obviously not the case, when you made your second e-mail account, did you use the Profile Manager tool? This little known tool is not located within the program, but is a seperate icon in your Netscape folder in your Start menu. Go take a look like this: Start Menu | Programs | Netscape folder | Utilities folder | User Profile Manager icon.
Now, when you add a new e-mail address to Netscape, first time use this icon-tool. Realize that Netscape will create a brand-new folder on your hard drive for each new e-mail address. If you use the only existing one with your current e-ail address, then it will only use the last e-mail that works.
Try this and I'll look back here tomorrow. If you need more help, then I'll give it.

tegan - you might want to just download Eudora. You can check as many emails from all over in 2 seconds - no signing in and out.
Good luck!

There's a couple of problems:
1) there is no such thing as Netscape 5.0. You can have a Netscape 4.x or 6.0..but not 5. Please verify which version you are using by going to "help" and then "about communicator"
2) The only version that can have multiple email addresses at one time are 6.0 and higher. Netscape versions 4.x you can have multiple personalities.. such as described earlier.. but this will not allow you to check all your email addresses at one time.
3) If you do go and download Eudroa 5.x .. as described above.. and wish to continue using your Netscape mail with your primary email account, you will run into difficulities.. as Eudora 5.x wants to be your main email program.. and in some cases you will not be able to open your Netscape email, no matter what you do. Please keep this in mind.. and if you choose to use Eudora 5.x, you should use it for all your email accounts.
