How to switch accounts?!

Question

This is a simple problem and there MUST be a simple solution!
I created a second e-mail acount but can't figure out how to switch to that account. It's pretty obvious on Outlook.
Help, por favor!

Answer 1

The Mail.app does not include an identity feature for switching identities but each email account is separate.
Open Inbox in the mailboxes drawer by selecting the black triangle beside it pointing it down to reveal the Inbox mailbox for each account.
Selecting an account named Inbox mailbox in the mailboxes drawer reveals messages received by that account only in the message list.
Selecting Inbox in the mailboxes drawer reveals a "blended" Inbox mailbox for all accounts.
The same applies to Drafts, Sent, Trash and Junk in the mailboxes drawer.
If the 2nd email account is for another regular user of this Mac, you need to and should create a user login account for the additional user without admin privileges. Each user login account has its own file storage location (Home folder/directory) to store their personal data including an email account with the Mail.app and each user's Home folder/directory and data stored within is protected and kept separate from each user as long as you disable automatic login. Each user can select their own Desktop picture and personal settings and enabling Fast User Switching makes the process of switching between login accounts a fast and easy process without affecting any programs currently running.
