I'm having a hard time understanding your problem. At one moment you say
that you download all mail to one account and then filter the mail to
the different accounts. In the next you suddenly want all your mail into
one account. PLease make up your mind about what your problem is!
What I consider a stupid solution is to have two different persons with
seperate ISP accounts reading eachothers mail. That is why I have setup
fetchmail to send the mail to each user.
