I have Windows XP home edition. I use Outlook Express for
my email. If I want to make a new user account, can I
copy my email account in Outlook Express to the New
User's log-on name instead of setting up an email account
from scratch on the new user's name?

Thanks for your help and assistance..

Yes. Use the backup and restore operation as described here: "OLEXP:
How to Back Up and Recover Outlook Express Data"
(http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=270670).
Or simply find out the Store Folder for both profiles (Tools > Options
> Maintenance > Store Folder) and copy over the data.
