Windows Mail does not have the Identities feature. This program called "WMIDs" will add the feature to Windows Mail if you want it. It costs $14.95.

OR

You could switch to Windows Live Mail Beta 2 (WLM) for free. It supports Pop3, IMAP, HTTP website (EX: Hotmail) email, and is a lot more stable. Plus, WLM will minimize to a tray bar icon and has a separate Inbox for each account. WLM will automatically import Windows Mail messages, accounts, and settings into it. Contacts will have to be manually imported from within WLM. (Tools, Contacts, File, Import, Address book for current Windows User.) To see the Menu bar, press ALT+M and check "Show all menus".

For US and UK (32 bit Vista):
http://get.live.com/betas/maildesktop_betas

For US and UK (64 bit Vista):
Windows Live Beta 2 Suite Downloads

For non-US and non-UK locations (direct download):
http://g.live.com/1rebeta/WLM_en-us


Hope this helps,
Shawn

Re: Identities or Multiple e-mail accounts

If you have to ask, you have 32-bit.
