I have a total of 4 email accounts set up on my bberry. 3 of them are personal, and I want all incoming messages to arrive in my "messages" folder so I need only check one email box for all personal email.

The challenge is, I also added a work email account and I can't figure out how to separate out this email box from my main "messages" inbox. Is there a way to have only this email box be separate from the others, and if so, how do I do that?

Thanks-

Ok, here's the answer you've all been waiting for. If you want to have texts separate from emails and still convenient to get to, listen up. Once you separate your SMS from your emails in the general options menu (of the messages folder), you will have a new icon created. however, nobody previous has told you that it is actually in the applications folder. so back out to the home screen, go there, and you'll see it. select move and drag it to the "up" folder. then, back out and the icon is now on your home screen. you can then move it to the first spot or wherever you'd like.

I really wish they were able to separate PIN messages from the messages folder...

This was a nice tip, something I was wondering why wasn't just the default. Thanks for sharing!

2) Select General Options.
3) In the SMS and Email Inboxes field, change the option to Separate and select Save.

I've also put in some screenshots to guide the way!

Thanks good info

Thanks for the tip. I've had my phone for 10 days now, and twice almost deleted an email instead of the SMS.
