Yes, I have 3 accounts from my ISP and have set them up in Mail. The web based email account like Yahoo or Gmail I'm not so sure.

Not quite sure what you're asking, but I'll try to help. Like quin said, you can set up Mail such that it'll handle email for multiple accounts. Personally I have two Gmail accounts & one MobileMe.

Use File > Add Account to add new *mailboxes*, and tweak the settings under Mail > Preferences.

And yes, Mail can handle multiple mailboxes w/the same provider. I have two Gmail accounts (one primary, and one for long-term storage). Mail handles both (or all three) seamlessly. You can view messages for each account respectively, or mail for all accounts by selecting the Inbox icon. I just name the respective Inbox icons something meaningful so I know what I'm lookin' at.

HTH.

Actually, fridayxiii, he's want to visit preferences -> Accounts and add the new account first. Then the new inbox/sent/drafts/trash for his other account will just show up automagically.
