Windows Mail INBOX NAME

[john]

I HAVE SEPARATE USER ACCOUNTS SET UP FOR MY WIFE AND ME. WHEN SELECTED,
NEITHER ACCOUNT HAS A NAME TO IDENTY WHO'S BOX IS OPEN.


FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN USING OUTLOOK EXPRESS THE IDENTITY WAS AT THE TOP OF THE
PAGE. WHEN I WAS LOGGED ON MY IDENTITY (OUTLOOK EXPRESSS JOHN) WAS AT THE
VERY TOP LEFT CORNER OF THE SCREEN.

IS THERE A PROVISION IN WINDOWS MAIL FOR THIS?

THANKS,
JOHN O'BRYAN

If you want to be treated as shouting, and therefore receive fewer
answers, post in ALL CAPITALS.

Windows Mail does not support identities.

Windows Mail does not have Identities. If you have set up two mail accounts
in Windows Mail under the same Windows User then both accounts will deliver
the mail to the Inbox (unless they're IMAP accounts). You can use message
rules to move them to different user created folders.

The provision Microsoft wants you to make is to use different Windows User
Accounts.
