You need to set up a 'Message Rule' for each incoming email address.
In Outlook Express, go to 'Tools' - 'Message Rules' - 'Mail'. In section 1, select "Where the To line contains people". Now in section 2, select "Move it to the specified folder". In section 3 you will now see two highlighted items which you click on to let you specify an email address and a mail folder for that email address. You need to repeat this process for each person you have made separate folders for.

I have multiple identities on Microsoft Outlook. The "main identity" got no spam but a secondary one I created and set as my default is inundated daily with junk mail. I want to go back to using the "main identity" as my default and kill the second one, but when I go up to "file/manage identities" menu and either try to switch identities or delete an identity, the one I want to kill is grayed out and not an option to do anything to. I've already checked the little box that says "use this identity when starting a program" several times hoping to reset the "main identity" as my default, but whenever I relaunch Outlook it launches in the unwanted identity, not the "main identity." Help!
