Windows Mail duplicating my emails on two different email addresse

[Cam]

I have two different email addresses on Windows Mail and want to keep them
separate. It was not a problem with Outlook but is with Windows Mail.
Everytime I get an email to one email address Windows Mail duplicates it on
the other email address. I do not want to set up another user account. How
can continue to use the two separate email addresses without them duplicating
each other?

New to Vista

Thank you

You can add multiple accounts, via Tools - Accounts - Add, but Windows Mail
doesn't have identities or a password option....

Windows Mail puts email from all accounts into the same Inbox, and there's
no setting to change that. When you send a message, you can select which
account to send from, by clicking on the From: box.

Here are a few alternatives to keep your email separate...

1. Create folders for each email account and create message rules to move
email addressed to each account into the appropriate folder.

2. Create and use different Windows Users, each with WM accessing only
their email account. (This is how you set a password to keep other users
out.)

3. Use the newer Windows Live Mail which has separate folders for each
account, but no identities or password:

4. Purchase WMIDs which adds identities to WM

5. Use Windows Mail for one account, Windows Live Mail for another.
