I have a computer which used Office xp to connect to a mail server with no issue. During a contract job, the technician installed Groupwise onto the computer so I could connect to their mail and not interfere with my mail. Groupwise works fine, but now when i open Outlook XP, I am prompted for a password and i can't receive mail. I look under Tools, Accounts and see no settings for my Groupwise and my settings are correct for my initial mail. I have tried uninstall/reinstall of Outlook with no luck.
 
From one of our techs who probably got it from the Novell site: Q. Can I use Outlook and GroupWise on the same computer?

A. We do not recommend using Microsoft Outlook on your computer; however, if extenuating circumstances require you to do so, see the steps below. If you have Microsoft Outlook on your PC and need to use it in addition to GroupWise, you must take the following steps in order to use both of these mail programs on the same computer:

Open your Control Panel. (Depending on your PC, click on Start > Settings > Control Panel or Start > Control Panel.)
Double-click on the Mail icon.
If there is a Show Profiles button, click on it.
Select the Prompt for a profile to be used option.
When starting Outlook, select your Outlook profile.
