Display accounts as separate mailboxes like Mail.app?

Hi

I'm just exploring Entourage at present and I see that there is much about
it I like as an email client however there is one thing about Apple's Mail
client that I would love in Entourage and that is the display of email
accounts as separate mailboxes.

It looks like Entourage can't be configured this way, but it would be great
if I'd got that wrong, however if it can't be made to do this I wonder if I
can create some "Mail Views" which will show me from which account emails
came from?

It's easy to set up a "Mail View" for "Any Header" contains the email
address for one of the accounts but I'm wondering if this will catch "BCC"
emails?

Thank you for any thoughts on this one.

You may want to use the "Mail Account" criterion in the Custom View dialog.
That way you can have mail from different accounts in different Custom
Views.

Another option is to create separate folders in the "Folders on my Computer"
hierarchy to store incoming mail for your various accounts. Then, you can
create a rule in Tools > Rules to move messages from a given account to that
folder automatically when received.

Thank you, that's great. I hadn't noticed the "Mail Account" criterion and
it is exactly what I require.
