No, it doesn't unless you create different accounts on the computer and 
log on as different people. I do NOT want my 13 year old son on the 
same mail account package as me, I get c150-200 mail messages a day, 
and I sort to sub folders, etc etc - I don't need him mucking round 
there too. Yes, I can and have set up two accounts on this computer so 
I can reply from two different email accounts.
BUT,  I don't want him having folders of his email in the middle of 
folders of my email. I work part time as a consultant - this is a work 
computer, as well as family computer (sigh). I want him OUT of it with 
his own stuff. Plus, I doubt he wants his mail downloading with mine 
(Could be wrong ther, but doubt it!)
I'll go have a look at the smart mailboxes option, however, so thanks 
for the tip.
