But, isn't this the whole reason we use different login names and let people have different home directories with their own configs?

A bit desperate though I would think? Ok, if I am logged in and I want to check someone else's mail account this might the "proper way" but if someone else wants to check his/her mail should they not simply have their own login name on the system?
