I am trying to add an additional email account to my Windows Mail....does
anyone know how you can make it so both accounts don't go to the same inbox?
Windows Mail doesn't seem to have as many customizing options as Outlook....

Thanks

Click to expand...

Tools Menu>message rules.

Create a new folder for the second account and then create a rule to send
the mail there.
 
You can have up to 32 email accounts in Windows Mail.
However, 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:
