You can use message rules to steer e-mail to separate folders, but this is a
convenience option. There is no security. Another thing you can do is to
shut off "remember password" in the accounts. This will prevent the files
from being downloaded but still will not provide security once they have
been downloaded. Other than logging onto separate Vista Windows, there's no
way to keep these separate. WLM is a little closer to what you might want.
