Does the standard Windows Mail not do this? I dont have Win7 but I know Vista had Windows Mail.

Thunderbird is great for this. I'd go with that

Or even try the email function built into Opera!

Just set each email up as IMAP and pretty much all email programs will keep your accounts seperate!!

Or fork out for a copy or Outlook (or get it in Office Pro)

If you're used to Outlook Express, Windows Live Mail is probably the simplest and most logical upgrade path, and it's a pretty decent client these days: http://www.windowslive.co.uk/essentials/mail .

It's part of the Live Essentials suite, but you don't need to install the other apps, unless you want them of course.

Windows Live Mail for the MS Experience (actually a decent enough product) or Thunderbird.

+1 as it basically is Outlook Express with a new skin over it.
