2 email addresses, can I keep seperate?

[Jenbean]

Hi,

I have 2 email addresses, and I would like to keep them seperate, i.e. view
emails from each address at different times!

I use windows mail, on vista and it would be ideal if there was a way I
could have 2 windows mail accounts, rather than 2 email addresses going
through one windows mail.

Is this something I can do? Or does anyone know if there's a way around
having both coming through one... hope this makes sense...

Thanks
Jen

==============================
Have you tried, Windows Live Mail?

Windows Live
http://get.live.com/wl/all

Windows Live Mail Overview

Windows Live Mail Features

Create as many accounts as you wish...

Tools / Accounts / Add button / E-mail Account

I have two Comcast accounts which always
shared the same inbox in WinXP OE6 but
in Windows Live Mail they are separate.

You can add multiple accounts, but Windows Mail doesn't have identities or a
password option....
Windows Mail puts email from all accounts into the same Inbox, and there's
no setting to change that. When you send a message, you can select which
account to send from, by clicking on the From: box.

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

5. Use Windows Mail for one account, Windows Live Mail for another.

Five possibilities:

1. Use different Windows Users

2. Make new folders and make a message rule like this:

Apply this rule after the message arrives
Where the message is from the mail.fjsmjs.com account
Move it to the fjsmjs folder
and Stop processing more rules

3. Use Windows Live Mail which has separate folders for each account:

4. Buy WMIDs http://www.oehelp.com/WMIDs/Default.aspx

5. Enable the Account column in the Inbox.
