My main question is if there will be a default inbox and I need to
set up rules to move messages into separate folders as I would in
Outlook.

You can set it up that way ... or you can set it up so that each account
has it's own inbox.

If you want each account to have it's own inbox, make sure you UNCHECK
the "Use Global Inbox" option when setting up the account.

In addition, how is the sending account determined? I presume that
it will use the receiving account when replying, but what about new
messages?

Two ways ... the default is determined by whichever account is selected
in the tree view on the left side ... alternatively you can select the
sending address from a combo box in the message composition dialog.
