Windows Live Mail Folders

I have three separate email addresses, one with Hotmail and two with my internet provider. I use Windows Live Mail as my email client.

Until recently emails for my different email addresses were directed to the proper account folders in Windows Live Mail for the address of the emails. Now, for no known reason (perhaps I've inadvertanly done something) all emails appear in the Hotmail folder irrespective of its address, and none in the other two folders. I find this irritating as all forwarded or reply emails go from my Hotmail account, which might be inappropriate.

Anyone any idea what might have happened and how I might get Windows Live Mail working as before?

I figured out what I did! In setting up my emails in my new laptop, when I accessed Hotmail, I added my other two addresses for Hotmail to pick up, without really knowing exactly how this worked! I have now deleted these two addresses from Hotmail and everything is back to normal. Added this explanation in case there are other confused souls out there!!

Good to know. Sorry, I have been missing in action but things are getting back to normal.
