Outlook Today - Messages section modification

P

Paul Kaye

I have two instances of "inbox" in the messages section of outlook today, one
for a POP3 account and the other for a web based MSN account. Can I rename
one of them so I can distinguish between the two? Apparently there's a
registry entry that accomplishes this? (Outlook 2002)

This doesn't ring true. You should have one in the Outlook Today section
for the POP3 account and one in a completely different folder set for the
MSN account. Both Outlook Today and the MSN folder cache should be at the
same level, not one under the other. Can you post a picture?

I see the confusion. When I say "Outlook Today" I dont mean in the folder
list. Indeed, in the folder list, the MSN inbox and the POP3 inbox are at the
same level but in different folders.
I have Outlook set to open up at the "Outlook today" screen which has three
headers, one being "Messages". In this column I have "Drafts", "Outbox" and
two instances of "Inbox". The two Inbox entries lead me to different places -
POP3 and MSN. I just want to rename one of them, to, say, "MSN Inbox".
Thanks for yout help.
