Multiple email addresses

I

I need help

I have two computers within my company. All emails go through the same server
so for example (e-mail address removed). I want to have one email address say
(e-mail address removed) and another (e-mail address removed). At the moment all emails sent to
these addresses appear in both computers' inboxes. Does anyone know how i
filter the emails so that ones sent to me go to my computer and ones to my
collegue go to his and we cant then recieve eachothers mail?

are these email addresses truly separate, or are they aliases of the one
master address? The giveaway is if you log on to your ISP with the same
username and password....

If they are both aliases of the same mailbox, you'll each have to create a
rule that deletes all messages and that uses an exception where the
recipient's address is your address. There's no way you can set it up where
you can't each receive the other's mail unless the addresses are for
different mailboxes.

Freeserve, (aka Wanadoo and now Orange), USED to allow this:
If a User had two email addresses such as (e-mail address removed) and
(e-mail address removed), then you could use the log-in of
"fred+username.freeserve.co.uk" on the one machine and
"jim+username.freeserve.co.uk" on the other. This device would only download
email addresses to Fred on the first machine and Jim on the other. Seems
they discontinued the facility......:-(
