Hello. I am a new Macbook Pro owner. I have an issue with my "Mail" application. I have two accounts set up on my Mail program. I am confused as to how I can see both accounts, but have them separated. Also, I'm not sure how to delete folders for certain accounts on the Mail program. I hope this makes sense, thank you for your help.

Hello,
I'm confused about what you're seeing or not seeing, or what you'd like, can you explain it more fully?
On the Folders, are these POP or IMAP accounts? Do you want to delete the Folders & all Mail within them?
Well, if you're new to the Mac, just remember it's the superior platform for superior people. So if you have two email accounts setup, they are separate already, but in most cases they are grouped in your Inbox. Right beside that Inbox should be a 'disclosure triangle' that you can click to display all the accounts you have setup, and then you can select each one individually, instead of having all your messages appear in the generic Inbox, without knowing in advance which account they came into.
That advice is for POP accounts; IMAP accounts would not necessarily appear in the generic Inbox; they usually appear at the bottom of the list of Mail accounts and folders.
If you want to learn more about your MacBook than what the included Help files tell you, I suggest you buy a copy of Mac OS X Lion: The Missing Manual by David Pogue. It's only 928 pages, and you can skip the parts about things you don't use or aren't interested in using.
I realize that this is basically dead ... but...
This annoys me too ... and as kurt188 suggested, this may be the case for inbox, but sent mail CANNOT be seperated in this way 😟 ... makes it unuseable for me ... otherwise would be a much better mail client.
Typical apple, thinking that their way is best and not allowing the user to select such a basic option to disable consolidated mailboxes.

kurt188 et al - Can you help me figure this scenario out?
I am seeing grouped Inboxes for all except one of my accounts. See below - Why is Account 3 not integrated like the others?? They are all IMAP accounts...
