Hi Drew,

It is a matter of creating a folder for each account then filtering
your mail into them. See the images on the following two websites to
help you along the way. If you prefer, you can use the Rules Wizard
first and make a new folder after you make the new rule.

1) Create a New Folder:

To create the folder, click on File, New, and  Folder.
Name the folder what you would like.  It may be a person's name, a
group name, or a common subject.
Next, Select the area which you would like the folder to be placed,
typically under the Mailbox or  Inbox area.  You may also create
subfolders by right-clicking a folder and selecting New Folder.

2) The Rules Wizard

Mail / Tools / Rules Wizard
   Select a Folder and click New.
   Select "Start From Blank Rule".
   Select "Messages When They Arrive".

Which Conditions do you want to check?
   Select "Through the specified account"
What do you want to do with the message?
   Select "Move it to the specified folder"
Give the rule a name 
Click on the specified folder [or click on "New" if you haven't made a folder yet]
Continue, Turn on the Rule, Finish, and you'll be all set.

I hope I've been able to make this fairly easy for you.  If you have
any questions, please post a clarification request *before*
closing/rating my answer and I'll be happy to reply.

Thank you,
hummer
