I have a small network, two computers. How can I segregate two email
addresses so that Ruth goes to the laptop via wireless from the switch box
and the other one plus rubbish, goes to the pc via ethernet.
Regards
Ruth

Are you running your own mail server on the network?

No - we are just two separate computers, linked together via a switch and
through the switch (Wanadoo Wireless and Talk) to our ISP (Wanadoo
Broadband)

It sounds like you just need to set up one email address on one computer and
the other email address on the 2nd computer. If the 2 addresses are actually
aliases for the same mailbox, as described in the article, you will need to use
message rules to keep computer 1 from downloading mail meant for computer 2.
Setting up such rules is also described in detail in the article.
