Can I use one Paypal account for two different User Id's

I have another user ID that I haven't actively used in a long time and when I did I used a different email address.  Therefore, it is not currently linked to any paypal account and I have only used it for reading in forums or browsing.  Can I link to my current Paypal account for purchasing and selling on the other user ID?  Can I, or do I use the same email address as well to process payments as I would have to change the email address on the other ID.  I was looking for this information on paypal and couldn't find it.

You can use the same Paypal email address to receive payments for several different Ebay accounts.

Your PayPal account can have eight email addresses associated with it.

Fabulous as I wasn't sure what I could do.    Now if you are selling on both accounts how do you know which  Ebay account the money came from?

I have my PP account listed with my 3 selling IDs. I don't know of a way to tell which one the payment came through aside from either checking each email address associated with each eBay account or just signing in to each account to see which one had a sale. I don't know of another way. When I get the email that I have a payment it does not indicate which account it was from, but since I usually sell different types of items on each ID it's usually fairly easy to figure out.

One paypal for two seller id's, two paypals for one seller id's - any way you want it.  And this is why I am concerned about Aiden - I think it will take away this flexibility and replace it with an Amazon-like rigid connection to my bank accout.
