two accounts

[Fred Fenner]

I have created two different email accounts. all emails come into the local
folder box. How do I get the two different email accounts to show and what
do i have to do to make sure each account gets its own email?

Thanks

Windows Mail does not have identities like Outlook Express did.
By default, all email from all accounts goes into the same Inbox.
There are four different ways of fixing that:

1. Use separate Windows user logins. That gives total privacy.

2. Use message rules to filter incoming messages into
separate folders.

3. Upgrade to Windows Live Mail which has separate folders for each
account, no rules needed: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

4. Purchase an add-on called WMIDs:

Now I use WLM to sync three emails at the same time and don't face with such
problem. Each email are downloaded to each 'inbox' folder and I know the
update of each mail. I have no idea why all of your emails come into the
local folder box.
