| | Re: Multiple Users in Windows Mail Windows Mail puts all email from all accounts into one Inbox. You can create a folder for each account, and create message rules to move the mail from one account into one of the folders. But there is no privacy. If you need privacy, create a Vista login account for each user, and set up Windows Mail for each user to only access their account. Or, you could use the newer Windows Live Mail, which has separate Inboxes, etc. for each account, but no privacy. -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Wanda Lee" <WandaLee@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:F5756D84-2806-4112-982A-F3DFD84A48F1@xxxxxx Quote: > I have three email addresses for multiple users in our home who use > Comcast. > I have built them all into windows mail. is there any way to download > them > so they don't all go to my inbox? |

| | Re: Multiple Users in Windows Mail We have 3 e-mail accounts on Windows Mail. I think I am getting my kids e-mail every time I am in my "user" account. If the kids are in their account, then they get their e-mail. I'm not sure what would happen if we were all logged off. It is not a matter of clicking a default button, tried that already! Can anyone help?
