G Gary VanderMolen Dec 4, 2008 #2 Yes, by default, all email from all accounts goes into the same Inbox. There are four different ways of changing 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: http://www.oehelp.com/WMIDs
