What e-mail application were the original accounts set up under. Outlook,
Outlook Express, or Webmail?

Windows Mail doesn't support identities. It allows multiple email accounts,
but puts the incoming mail from all of them into the same Inbox.
You're expected to set up multiple Vista user accounts if you want multiple
users, and set up Windows Mail separately for each of them.

That's the great thing about Vista, you get all your mail in the same INBOX.[email protected] said:Windows Mail doesn't have identities. It can use several email accounts
but it puts the incoming email for all of them in the same Inbox.
That way you don't have to sort it. It's all thrown together in one place,
BRILLIANT. How did they come up with that. They must be geniuses.

Ok, I'll bite, what are you "impressed with?"
Don said:There may be a way to have vista and e-mail. If you still need to have
multiple accounts, the easy way to do it is not to use windows mail at all,
but use Outlook Express. Go to the microsoft website and download Outlook
Express. install it on your vista machine, set up your e-mail accounts as
before. This may or may not work, but it should. If you're as impressed
with vista as I am, this is a viable solution to having multiple accounts.
This is the simple way to do it. Help file on vista is less than helpfull
about everything. Don't rely on the help files. Of course, there may be one
more built-problem. A good number of software programs that I've tried to
transfer to vista are not compatible. If Outlook Express is not
compatible......

Actually, not true. I have a number of accounts and newsgroups (like this one) and all the incoming mails goes to that particular group/accounts own, separate, unique folder. Now all the sent mail and deleted mail all goes to the same sent folder and deleted folder.

No trees were harmed in the sending of this message and a very large number of electrons were asked their permission to be terribly inconvenienced. And a party was thrown for them afterwards for being really cool about it.

A better solution is to get the FREE mail program Windows Live Mail from the net. Much like OE and WM, but better and more features. companion product to Windows Live Messenger's IM/chat/video/file sharing app - also a freebie. Try it, you'll like it.

Some users like it that way, I guess.
Here are a few alternatives...
1. Create folders for each email account and create message rules to move
email addressed to each account into the appropriate folder.
2. Create and use different Windows Users, each with WM accessing only
their email account. (This is how you set a password to keep other users
out.)
3. Use the newer Windows Live Mail which has separate folders for each
account, but no identities or password:

4. Purchase WMIDs which adds identities to WM

Some of us like to do our own sorting of incoming mail, by using
message rules. Others may prefer the way Windows Live Mail
automatically sorts incoming mail into multiple account folders.
It's nice to have choices.

Kathy said:I just purchased a new PC with Windows Vista and I can't get both mine and my
daughter's e-mail addresses to be identitied in Windows Mail. I created User
Accounts for each of us in Vista, created the accounts under Windows
Mail/Tools but when I click on File and Identities to switch Identities, I go
to a wizard to import the identities and any of the options that I choose
tells me that all identities have been either imported or deleted and then I
can't complete the Wizard. Please help!!!!

US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only, no POP access.
Windows Mail handles POP mail but not webmail. There are two Yahoo solutions:
1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.
2. Pay Yahoo to get their premium "Mail Plus" service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/overview/index.html
and use the special settings for that service:
http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mail/original/mailplus/pop/pop-14.html
If you are OK with using a non-Yahoo email address, you have three other
solutions:
* Use the email address assigned to you by your ISP.
* Get a free Gmail account.
* Get a free Hotmail/Live account, and use it with the Windows Live Mail email program.
