1. Click on File, choose Identities. On the slide out menu choose Add New Identity.
|
|
2. Type in the name of the person that will use this new Identity and click Ok. You have the option here of requiring a password. Please note that if you set a password here it is only for accessing that Identity and is not necessarily the same password you use for your email account. If you lose, or, forget this password, Net-Venture will be unable to help you retrieve it or any email from that account over the phone.
We generally do not recommend this option for most users. Use this feature at your own risk.
