Is it possible to access multiple exchange servers with outlook?

Here is the scenario - my company has it's own exchange server, but I am currently seconded to another company - who also have an exchange server.

I am using my notebook, and I create a VPN to my company to access the exchange server there - can I add another account to outlook and access the 2nd company exchange server?

Failing that - I guess I could run outlook for mhy company and outlook express for the other?

You can do this. Just create a second profile to use with your second server. If you don't know how, let me know and I'll post it.

Can you have both mail boxes open at the same time?

Thanks for the prompt answer btw.

That's the one thing you can't on one client. If you wanted them to be open at the same time, you'd have to use two diffent clients. Also, express doesn't connect to a corporate exchange server. It will only retrieve from internet mail. So one of your companies would have to have mail available on a POP server or something.
