I think it is not related to what happens in XP when each user has
their own mail folder, so won't normally have visibility of anybody
else's messagebase and TB! accounts. (The next paragraph is roughly
quoted from TB!'s help file.)

For each account in TB! you set "user" or "administrator." The latter
can see all accounts defined in the running copy of The Bat! and can
change all account properties, program preferences and settings.
Ordinary Users cannot see all defined accounts, only the accounts in
their group. The properties they may change are determined by the
Administrators. If a particular user wants to have access to several
e-mail accounts, the Administrator can define a group of accounts for
that user, which are displayed whenever that user logs on to The Bat!

Glad to help.
