It has become quite common to have more than one e-mail account -- you might use one that came with your ISP service, and you might also have a Webmail account (Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo! Mail), for example.
Opening each Inbox, so you can monitor them, is a simple matter of opening a new tab (see, Browser tab quick tips for more) and logging in-- as long as we're talking about different services.
If you have more than one "Identity" at a Webmail provider, (two different Gmail accounts, say) you typically are automatically 'logged out' of one when you log in to the other from the same computer. This is annoying. Here's how to fix that behavior.
Tip of the day: Change IE's settings to allow separate log ins.
As strange it may seem, you need to close Internet Explorer, and then make a change in Folder Options.. this will affect IE as Microsoft consider it to be a part of the operating system.
1) Start >Control Panel >Folder Options (XP user: Start >Settings >) 
2) Click on the "View" tab.
3) Scroll down until you see "Launch folder windows in a separate process" and place a check in the checkbox.
4) Click "Apply", and then "OK".
That's it. You're done. Now you can launch IE and you will be able to log in to each of your Identities/Inboxes, and one will no longer 'log out' the other.
