In Thunderbird I was able to get emails in separate "Inbox"accounts for my
wife and myself. How do you set this up in Outlook? I have only one shared
"Inbox".

Either separate Outlook profiles, one for each of you with your account in
one and her account in the other, or use Rules and Alerts to make a rule to
move your/her email into a separate folder(s)

Or instead of using rules, in your account settings change the delivery
folder for each account to a separate pst-file.

Right, it's hard to keep versions and features aligned sometimes...

Yup, but this is sure one to remember. I've had multiple situations where it
was the sole reason to justify an upgrade.
