I want to continue using the @home email interface but will use a different email address as my primary address.
Scenario
Recommended SolutionSet up mail forwardingIf you are using webmail, you will want to forward all mails received by your primary account to your @home address. This will eliminate the need for you to check email on this account using a different, non @home, interface. The specific steps to accomplish this will depend on your email provider, but it may be helpful to see how it is done using @home. Set up mail forwarding.
Add another account to OutlookIf you are using Outlook you do not need to bother forwarding emails, but instead you need to ensure that Outlook is configured to check for mails on both accounts. To do this you will need to add the details of the additional email account to Outlook. Add account to Outlook.
Set up reply addressOutlook users will also want to ensure that they have specified a reply address for mails sent from their @home email account. This address should be that of your primary email. Set up reply address.
Create a Signature/IdentitySetting up a signature or identity can also be extremely useful in these circumstances. These features enable you to automatically add standard text to all emails that you send.

If you use webmail see creating signatures and identities webmail or if you use Outlook see creating signatures and identities Outlook.
