I am using a hosted exchange account which I access from Outlook 365. In Outlook 365 I have configured this account as the first one. Its OST hosts the mail, contacts and calendar entries for the account.
Now I want to access a second exchange account from the same instance of Outlook 365. Can I simply configure the second exchange account in Outlook 365 and will it live peacefully along the first one, or is this likely to cause issues?
I want to be able to move mails, contacts and calendar items between the two accounts.

Outlook can have as many accounts as you like.

To move / copy mail simply select (right mouse click) the mailbox FROM which you want to move / copy mail, select the mail and then select copy or move and go to the TARGET mail box.

When Sending mail you can select EITHER account - just use the drop down in the from pane in outlook.

Thanks, I knew that for non exchange accounts, I use several myself. But I was not sure whether it could handle several exchange accounts with Contacts and Calendar and keep everything apart reliably. Just wanted to make sure before I create a mess.
