I have 3 e-mails accounts and i want to deal with each individually. What
are the steps to set up and receive each alone.

If you mean by that a separate Inbox, Sent Items etc for each address, then
not with Windows Mail!
Windows LIVE Mail will do this AFAIK, and also Mozilla Thunderbird will do
this.
 
They removed the Identities feature from OE, so you either have to set up
all your accounts and use filters to segregate them, or set up different
users and have each user for each account.

My WMIDs program (www.oehelp.com/WMIDs/) mimics the Identities feature of
OE.

Windows Mail does not have identities like Outlook Express did.
By default, all email from all accounts goes into the same Inbox.
There are four different ways of fixing 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:

the problem I'm having is. I've gotten that latest live mail and it's still
not separating them. i've tried deleting the accounts after the update and
readding them, but they still all go into one folder
 
If you are running Windows Live Mail, it should show a separate set of
folders for each of your accounts. Is that what you see?
