Our family use individual email addresses on the lines of

provides one network password for the surname account.

This indicates that the addresses are actually all aliases of a single
mailbox. Outlook doesn't have the ability to selectively download like OE
does. You have several choices. One is to configure Outlook to leave
copies of messages on the server and create a rule to delete all messages
except for those containing the specific recipient address (the "****" part
of the address). Another is to move the incoming messages into separate
folders depending on the recipient address. The third is to convince your
ISP that you want separate mailboxes for each family member. I'd go with
the latter first, if I could and the first choice I cite otherwise.
