Mac Mail- Can you password protect it???

[danileson99]

I recently synced my hotmail to my mac mail, which is all great apart from one thing. My macbook is shared with my housemates and anyone of them can boot up mail and read all my emails etc. Is there a way of password protecting the app on startup??

No, but you can create separate user profiles, so each logs in under a different name. They won't see any of your user files.

This should have been done in the first place...
