EXim4 on Debian - setting up multiple mailboxes

I have exim4 smtp server running on Debian. I tend to use only one user account to login. The machine is running multiple websites and I have assigned unique email addresses for each of the websites.

Emails sent to these addresses do not seem to get delivered. Emails sent to the alias that I login (alias of root) get delivered.

I only see one /var/mail/myrootalias file. How do I create multiple mailboxes. I am guessing once I have that setup I will have one file for each mailbox under /var/mail.

TIA
