Using Windows 8.1.  All email addresses here are just examples, not our real addresses.

My husband and I use Demon as our ISP, where our domain is of the form     @user.demon.co.uk.

The email address I use is of the form *** Email address is removed for privacy ***,

my husband's email address is of the form *** Email address is removed for privacy *** (the domain  household.com  is registered to us.)

In order to receive emails using live mail, the incoming mail server address on the Servers tabs of my account has to be *** Email address is removed for privacy ***.

I have set up an account for me, and do receive emails addressed to *** Email address is removed for privacy ***

My husband has also set up an account, and this shows up on the main Live Mail screen fine.

But if his account uses the address *** Email address is removed for privacy ***  as the incoming server address on his Live Mail account, then emails sent to him appear in both our inboxes.

If he uses his own address (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***) then his emails only appear in my inbox.

We don't want to use separate passwords or anything, just to both have an account and split up incoming mail appropriately.  At the moment we use Entourage on a Mac, which has no problem doing what we want.

Help please!
