Hi All

Just trying to set up email on my new PC and I've run into a bit of a problem and wondered if anyone can help.

I have setup my email accounts fine, however, as my girlfriend and I both use the pc but don't sign in as different users (a total waste of time IMO) what I used to do in OE on my old pc was to have two accounts setup for our isp email one for her so she can send from her email address and one for me so I can send from mine.

As the accounts both checked the same server, I had to setup some message rules so anything with my email address went to my inbox and anything address to her addy went to her inbox.

I've just tried doing this in Live Mail, and while I can set the 'to line contains people' part, it won't allow me to select either of our inboxes as the folder to move the email to.

This means emails will either all download to which ever version of the account checks the server first, or they all download to both inboxes, which is totally pointless.

Does anyone know anyway to get this working?

Alternatively is there a better free email client that can be setip woth pop3 accounts and IMAP accounts that will let me set it up like I used to in OE?

Any help much appreciated.
