Windows Mail Accounts

I didn't have a problem setting up Windows Mail for my new laptop - my account works fine. But when I set up an 'Identity' for my wife, then tried setting up her Windows Mail account, I ran into trouble - I got a pop up from Vista saying "Identity's" are no longet used by Windows Mail. Set up an "Individual User Account". But I thought that was what I was doing! Is Vista telling me I can't have a separate Identity for my wife where she can check her own email? Does she have to check her email from my signed in Identity?
