My husband has a Bigpond email account with its own name and password. We have this separate for our own specific reasons.
My husband and I have a Hotmail email account for our friends, family and acquaintances, with another name and password.
Since you have changed both of these to Outlook, we cannot have both accounts open at the same time on this computer.
A message appears that tells us that the other account is already open - however, this so-called 'open' one is the first one opened, and it is impossible to even sign in to the second one until the first one is closed.

This is totally inconvenient as we are often needing to check one against the other for specific information.

Can this be corrected?

And maybe you can explain - when we sign out -

from Bigpond (now Outlook) - we go straight into unmetered Bigpond news,

but from Hotmail (now Outlook) - we go straight to MSN news.  Now everything is separate again. Huh?
