Can I manage two email addresses in one Outlook program?

Can I email from two different email addresses using the same Outlook program
on my computer? One is work, the other personal.

If you post your version of Outlook, it makes it easier to answer, but the
closest I can come without knowing your version is yes, depending on how you
set up Outlook. Best way is to use profiles.

Why would using profiles be any better than just adding another account? It
would seem to me that switching from one profile to another would just be
added steps.

Because, if you are connecting to Exchange at work and want your items to
remain available when you are at the office, using a .pst will remove them
from the Exchange server and render them unavailable when in the office and
using Outlook to manage your information. Besides, there are more problems
when using Exchange and Internet mail in the same profile than just mail
management.

Oh, I thought the OP was using the computer as a stand alone. Sorry.
