If your email addresses are all "aliases" for one mailbox, you'll still need
use Message Rules to keep things straight.
Most families (an intentionally all-encompassing term) will have one Mail
Account with their one ISP subscription ($$/month for all). Most ISPs
provide you with multiple Addresses for the Mail Account (e.g., (e-mail address removed),
(e-mail address removed), etc.) but all of them "point" to the one mailbox. As such,
each Identity will need to use Message Rules so that only mail addressed to
them is downloaded into their Inbox.
The following refers to two addresses, but you should be able to follow it
and amend for three or more.
(e-mail address removed) and (e-mail address removed) are aliases for one Mail Account (mailbox). In
Windows Mail running in the User Account associated with (e-mail address removed), create
a Message Rule stating, "Where To or CC contains (e-mail address removed), Do not
download it from the server" and place this rule at the very top of the
list.
Then create a similar rule in Windows Mail running in the User Account
associated with (e-mail address removed) directing any messages addressed to (e-mail address removed)
not to be downloaded from the server.

By default, all email from all POP accounts goes into the same Inbox.
There are four different ways of changing that:
1. Use separate Windows user logins. That gives total privacy, and is
ideal when two different people use the same computer.
2. Use message rules to filter incoming messages into
separate mail folders.
3. Upgrade to Windows Live Mail which has separate folders for each
account, no rules needed: http://download.live.com/wlmail
4. Purchase an add-on called WMIDs:

Not with WIndows Mail and one Windows User Account. If you want that, use
another mail client that supports it, such as Windows Live Mail.
