2 Identities

[Colleen]

I have set up 2 mail identities or accounts. How do I switch to the 2nd one?
When I open the Windows Mail Icon it takes me directly to the 1st mail box.

Windows Mail has only one Inbox. If you have created additional
custom folders for receiving incoming mail, you will have to select
them manually.
Note that the newer Windows Live Mail program is better at keeping
different mail accounts separated.

Windows Mail does not support separate identities. To have separate e-mail
folders, you have to create a new user account for Windows.

If you have created additional e-mail accounts in the same Windows user account,
they will all use the same folders by default. The only difference is when you
create a new outgoing message, you're able to select which account is being used
(sent from).

As a workaround, you can create an additional inbox, such as Inbox2, and then
create a simple rule that moves any incoming messages for this account to it.
The other remaining mail boxes (except for Inbox) are shared.
