The Rogue is the main character with the Shaman / Mage as assists for now Elsegundo. I'm using the Rogue as a Tank but I intend to just do outdoor quests and leveling to lvl 58, then gearing them up with the well thought out and easily doable quest rewards Blizz put in the 1st Outland zone.
I have a lvl 61 Paladin, Warlock and Druid so I can move characters between accounts and put a 5 man team together when all reach 60 and I have a new computer. My current comp is three years old and works well dual boxing but it is starting to stutter, jump, and slow down with the 3rd character added.
I have always been hazy about what to put on the main character because when I started boxing the tutorials I read said " Put this on your followers but not on your main" - then they did not say what to put on the main. So I put the same thing on the main as the followers and it works. I hope that is the correct macro for the main, as I couldn't think of another way to do it.

Just put Sinister Strike on the key you press to have the mage/shaman cast their spells, that way you can mash sinister strike and the other 2 will cast their spells.

The trick when mixing classes is nothing more than finding similar spells or actions and then putting them on the same key on each character. Conversely, if you only want one character to do an action, for example having your shaman heal, you can put the heal on a key that is empty on the other characters.
I had 2 shammies and 2 mages, and one shaman was the designated heal bot, so I had 4 keys bound to SHIFT1- SHIFT4 and each one was simply a
/target toonname
/cast healspell
You can also add modifiers to cast different levels of similar spells, especially for healing.
Don't get too eager to write macros where they aren't necessary, headaches ensue.
