I have a iMac PC. My main screen has my email address through gmail. My buddy uses the guest user screen for his own needs.

Anyway, I need to create another email address for myself for my volunteer work. I don't want to use the main screen. How can I use the guest user screen for this purpose?
But if I can create the new email address will this void his email address?

As far as I know, you can make all the email accounts you want to make. I don't think the screen has anything to do with your emails. I had about six or more email addresses at one time.

You are confusing log in privileges with e-mail accounts. Two entirely separate functions. Neither effects the other, however, you may want to secure specific email accounts from users other than yourself. Which can be a PITA as you try to remember passwords. And not so easy to do in the Mac mail client. The password is created for server access when you first set up the mail account unless it is an iCloud mail account which uses your Mac ID and password. An easier alternative is to download one of the free mail client apps to use for the volunteer account only, and limit permissions to yourself only. Less confusing for yourself as well. Take a look for mail clients at the app store. Mail for Gmail may be right up your alley. It is free.

BTW, you can create as many desktop subfolders (screens) as you want provided you have enough RAM installed if you intend to run them simultaneously, and you can control log in access to each, which may be a bit complicated for you. Therefore, easier for you to use a separate client with privileges only for you.

How do I go about downloading a free mail client app?
 
If you have multiple businesses or need individual separate accounts, you have the ability to create multiple accounts and use the same mobile device, reader, and bank account. You can only link one bank account per Square account, but individual Square accounts can share a bank account if needed.
