After you have all your accounts set up, you can manage all of them in Outlook.

To switch from the first account to the second, just select its inbox.

This is useful, but then you have two Inbox folders in the Favorites section, which might get a bit confusing.

Instead, Outlook automatically adds the name of the email account to the Inbox folder in the Favorites section, so you know which is which.

For example, if you right-click the Inbox, the new folder will be a subfolder of the Inbox.

If you right-click the email account, the new folder will be the same level as the Inbox.

We named our new folders Subfolder of the inbox and Subfolder of the account.

You can name your new folder anything you want (except protected names, like Inbox, Sent Items, etc.).

Gmail, in particular, though, is quite clever when it comes to folders.

Instead, it puts a copy of the email into the corresponding folder.

This is because, in Outlook, you can only put an email in one folder.

In Gmail, though, you can apply multiple labels to the same email.

The sending account defaults to whichever account you were in when you clicked New Email.

Just right-click the account, and then select Remove account name.

For example, in Gmail, any labels created to match the folders you created in Outlook will remain, and any emails with those labels will still have them.
