OE6 and XP

I can't get the family's e-mail accounts to go to the right person. We
have XP so there are four different users. Our IP (TELUS in BC) is one
account and four alias.

When we had W98 (before leaping to XP) we had the same IP e-mail
accounts that came into one OE e-mail program. No one logged in
separately (we're, so far, a trusting family) and the e-mails went to
the individual's folders.

With XP and the four user accounts the e-mails randomly go to whomever
logs on first for that day.

I have set up the accounts as per the w98 and set the each OE in each
user account just with their e-mail address, etc.

Well, I'm baffled and I've been using OE since it first arrived on the
scene. Any answers from any quarter would be appreciated.

Unfortunately, as your email accounts are aliases and not true seprate email
accounts, there's no real way round this.
