This post looks close to what I am looking for, but not quite.

I changed from Outlook 97 to Outlook 2000. I have created three POP3
accounts in outlook 2000. The problem is that when I launch Outlook 2000 it
opens to only 1 of my accounts. When I was using 97 and would lauch outlook I
would get a drop down with all three accounts and I could choose which one I
wanted to open. How do I set this up again?

Thanks!
Matt
