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:

4. Purchase an add-on called WMIDs:
