setting up e-mail accounts

O

outnumbered

Working with my internet provider on several occasions has not solved this
problem!
When opening Windows Mail, it automatically shows our default mailbox with a
login on top of it.

We have six users in our home and we do not want everyone to have access to
this mailbox. How do we get it to not show up until we login?

Also, we would like a separate confidential mailbox for each person's e-mail
address. Currently, everyone's mail shows up in all the mailboxes - YIKES!

Any ideas?

You might want to switch over to Window Live Mail. You can set up multiple
different mail accounts (hoping your mail provider allow for additional mail
boxes). and then shut off "remember password" in the accounts setup.

Even if you were able to limit access to a mailbox,
that would not protect private non-mail documents and pictures.

For real privacy, you will need to give each user their own Windows
user login, and be sure to exit that profile (Winkey-L) when each is
done using the computer.
