Is it possible using ICS feature in win98se to access two or more email accounts from two or more boxes from the internal network ?

For ex, let say I have 3 boxes: 1,2,3. If 1 does the ICS stuff, 2 and 3 are nodes on the internal network. Is it possible for 2 and 3 to pick email using two accounts from the ISP via ICS.

I hope I have made myself clear. Any idea comments ?

Hmm... From what I understand, in your example you wanna have node 2 and 3 access multiple e-mail accounts from the ISP, right?

If that's what you meant, sure, you can do that without a problem... As long as you setup the accounts information correctly you will be able to access those accounts without a problem...

Yes, you probably got it right. Basically I want one Internet connection using ICS and have multiple machine on the home network pickup their individaul emails on their repective machines. If that's what you understood and if you know how to do it - would you be kind enough to share the information?

I think it is only a matter of setting up your email client like BCYL said. What are you using to check you email?

From what I understand, computers 2 and 3 will be checking seperate accounts, correct? If so, just set up the email clients on each one for the correct POP3 servers and such. ICS should not make any difference.
