what type of email accts? If exchange, and they are two different mailboxes
you need to send as permissions on the second.

you'll need to use rules to move one of the addresses to a new folder. Or...
you can use search folders, one for each account - the messages will stay in
one inbox but they'll each have their own virtual folder so you know which
acct they are from.

Because those mailboxes are kept on the mail server and copies of the
messages are stored locally - this allows you to check mail from different
computers and have it identical on each. You can't mix http and pop3 in one
mailbox without copying the pop3 to the IMAP or http server or removing mail
from the IMAP or http server.

If your accounts support IMAP, you can use it to kept the accts separate,
but its just as easy to do it with rules or search folders if you don't want
or need to keep the messages on the server. These accounts don't support
flags, if you need to set reminders.
