outlook express accounts

[tommo46]

Ive got XP pro and there are 4 desktops for the family members I use outlook express for email and I feel a bit stupid having ti ask this question but how do I setup 4 different accounts. I have had a fiddle with identities and that but I couldn't stop my missus email going into my inbox. I'm on freeserve with their email addresses, I suppose there's a really easy way of doing it so I'd be obliged for any help, cheers.

For each account create the message rule "where the to line contains people" enter the email address of the account then "move to specified folder" point this to the appropriate folder. Give the rule a name and activate it.

Thanks I've tried that but what I really want is when the missus logs onto her user account in XP, her desktop, that she picks up just her emails and not mine and vice versa, is there anyway to keep them all separate so that they stay private?

Tommo with freeserve that's not possible as they read the email address as anyname@username.freeserve.net the anyname part is not used when sending mail to your inbox, so all mail with the, username.freeserve.net will go to any account that opens the mail client. If you open it you get them all and if your mrs opens it she gets them all.
