| | Vista - Where are the different folders for different accounts? |
| |
| 04-10-2007 | #1 |
| | Where are the different folders for different accounts? I can't seen to find out where the different folders for my different accounts are? I made two new accounts for me and my wife. And now both of our mail ends up in the same inbox. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Please help me. |

| | Re: Where are the different folders for different accounts? They are not separated like the Identities feature OE had.. You will have to use a different Windows Logon account to have them separated or WMID from http://www.oehelp.com which will make WinMail act like it has the Identities feature. Alternatively, Windows Live Mail desktop will separate every account. Still in beta and still buggy though. http://ideas.live.com.

| | Re: Where are the different folders for different accounts? Unless you use Message Rules, all incoming mail will go into the common Inbox. Go to Tools, Message Rules, Mail, New, and create 2 rules similar to this: 1. Where the message is from the His account move it to the Inbox_His folder and stop processing more rules. 2. Where the message is from the Her account move it to the Inbox_Her folder and stop processing more rules.

| | Re: Where are the different folders for different accounts? I got so excited when I saw thispost! I have has Vista for four days -- going NOUTS! I did all this for five accounts. I established four sub folders tot he inbox and set up the rules as you stated. NOW -- I do not get anything in the original INBOX, and the other four messages all show up in the filnal folder on the list. What am I doing wrong? BTW - I also established the folders as sub-folders to the LOCAL directory -- same problem. Can you provide additional guidance here? Thank you!

| | Re: Where are the different folders for different accounts? Could you copy your Message Rules, and post them here? If the rules contain an email address, the copy you post here should have the email address obscured somewhat for privacy.
