How can I specify multiple delivery data files in Outlook 2003?

This is my current setup:
1) I have my corporate email account that delivers/syncronizes email to the
data file outlook.ost
2) I have my hotmail accout that delivers/syncronizes email to the data file
outlook0003.pst

The problem:
I also have several pop3 accounts that I want to be delivered to yet another
data file. I have created a new pst which is added and can be selected as
"default data file". Only I don't want it to be default. I want my corporate
Exchange mail to be delivered to the outlook.ost data file and I want my
pop3 accounts to be delivered to my outlookpop3.pst data file. How can I do
this?

Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks.

You'll need a separate profile for that, as OL will deliver your Internet
mail to the default delivery location. Or use rules to move the Internet
mail to your PST file folders.

You'll need to create rules to move the messages to the other data files.

1) I have my corporate email account that delivers/syncronizes email to the
data file outlook.ost
2) I have my hotmail accout that delivers/syncronizes email to the data file
outlook0003.pst

Thanks. I'll try rules since I think using profiles I wouldn't be able to
see both "mailboxes" at the same time?
