I don't know the ins and outs but I was able to set up multiple email accounts on multiple apps on my Windows 10 - Mail, Microsoft Outlook, browser.

On any one of the app, I can choose to select which email account I see and only emails on that account are visible. To see other emails, I select whichever email account I use.

One benefit for me is that I don't like Gmail's reply or compose feature so I go to either Outlook or Mail to do my response.

It's not so much a question of "not liking it" (*) so much as it being a proprietary, single-source solution that runs on only a single server platform. All characteristics I avoid whenever possible.

I disliked Lotus Notes for many of the same reasons. (**)

Well, that and the fact Lotus Notes was so-poorly-designed and written it actually made MS-Exchange look good. E.g.: At least Microsoft got writing email "Received:" headers right. The dim bulbs over at Lotus couldn't even do that simple thing right. That particular bit of ineptitude could have nasty real-world consequences.

(*) Actually, I did dislike MS-Exchange for another reason: I admin'd an Exchange Server, once. Hated it. Couldn't wait to get it out of my computer room.
(**) Lotus Notes' server at least ran on Unix, though.
