Will Outlook allow a second email account with Incoming mail settings only?

For a variety of reasons I cannot set up a second account that includes
outgoing server settings and I'd like to be able to check an account with
forwarding email all over the galaxy.

I was hoping that just setting up my "two-way" email account as the default
would solve the problem but it doesn't.

Thanks for the help.

Yes.

You still need to specify something for the outgoing server, so just use the
same settings as for your main account, then modify the Send/Receive group
so that the second account won't send when a send/receive is performed.
