How do I keep each data file with it's correct Outlook account?
I have a computer that has Outlook 2010. There are 5 accounts on this Outlook. For some reason all of a sudden there is a new default data file which is Outlook.pst which is now causing all 5 accounts to show all e-mails of those 5 in all 5 accounts. I cannot get rid of this new "Outlook.pst" and I cannot make any other Data File the "Set as Default" These are all Imaps. Should I reinstall Outlook and make them Pops and import the correct data file to the correct e-amil account?

John, when you say create new accounts, you mean under Outlook, not Mail in Control Panel correct? It is asking for a new profile name, should I name it Outlook again?
You can create a new Outlook Profile in Control Panel , Mail and then in the same place you can set up email accounts. Microsoft is now using this convention

Thank you and I was happy to help
Delete the Outlook Profile (Control Panel, Mail). No need to reinstall Outlook.
Now make new accounts, each with a new PST file. Once done, you can import files into the PST files you want,
