individual mail accounts

[Nick]

After having a joint email account for years, we now have the need for
seperate email accounts too. I want to be able to have her personal emails
go to her account and mine to mine so, for example, all her Facebook
responses go to her individual account instead of our joint email account.
How can I do this? Thanks

Do you two use separate computers or separate Windows user accounts
on the same computer? If not, it will be difficult to maintain privacy.
You can have up to 32 email accounts in Windows Mail.
However, by default, all emails from all accounts go 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:
