To answer your e-mail concern; the answer is that you can indeed direct each device to interact with only one of the accounts set up per device. On the iPhone, it’s simply a matter of deactivating the account you do not want that device accessing. I haven’t looked at the e-mail settings on my Mac Mini since I turned off my Charter account but I do know I am not getting e-mail on the Mac from that account even though the account has been fully configured.
