How to have separate inboxes for Identities?

I have an account with multiple Identities, which makes them a unified inbox but I'd instead like to see emails from these Identities in separate individual inboxes.

I can see that I can use the Account Settings to put the Sent Items in separate folders https://i.imgur.com/q9lwSqE.png, but I can't work out how to do it for inboxes.

use saved searches... Ctrl+Shift+F and save the search as inbox for whatever email address. Then you can click on the saved search and treat it like an inbox.
