create separate inbox folders for 4 different accounts/addresses

[reallysimple]

I know this has been answered before, but I need REALLY simple
instructions...Outlook2003, Windows XP. I have 4 different email addresses.
Received mail all gets dumped into one INBOX folder. I want to have mail
received for each address go into its own individual folder
automatically...one business, one personal, one for my son, one special. That
way I don't have to scroll through everyone else's email to pick out mine. I
want to just click on "business" if I only have time to read business emails,
etc. Everyone keeps talking about "rules", but I'm not sure that is what I
want, is it? PLEASE keep it really simple. Thank you in advance! Love,
"reallysimple"

Go to tools, Rules and Alerts and make 4 rules, one for each account.

If you don't wish to use rules, please upgrade to Outlook 2007 or 2010,
where it is supported to have multiple PST files with each corresponding
to a unique email account.

Give your son his own Windows account and his mail will be completely
separate. Create a separate mail profile for your business mail. Have a
second profile for the personal and special and use rules to separate them.
