I have a Windows phone & Windows 7 on the PC with a Windows live 2011 email. 

My son has the Windows Live account linked to his Xbox, & therefore to his Windows phone & FB account, but I want to keep his emails separate from my emails.  I also want my emails on my Windows phone.   

I have been advised by my broadband provider to set up a new Window Live account & then change the settings to 'imap'.  I now have 2 Windows Live accounts.  I have (I think) copied the contacts from the old live to the new one, but how do I change the setting to 'imap' & then how do I go about using the new Live account to receive emails from the old email address?   So confused.  (I have already set as 'imap' on my phone - that bit seemed easy by comparison.)
