You can log out (usually among your shut down options) and log back in as a
new user. Also, in terminal, let's say you wanted to launch mail_program
as user2 without logging out, you sould be able to type:
>>> su user2
enter password
>>> mail_program_name &
then close the program and type "exit" in terminal to close
I believe that should work, though I have not tried the specific example I
am describing.
