Default Using "message icon" for ALL e-mail accounts

Please Login to Remove!

I use all 10 allowances for various email accounts (on my bold). I have 9 yahoo addresses & 1 outlook address. This makes for many icons to have to thumb through.

I noticed the Bold has an icon called "messages" that lights up when ever I have a messages in one or more email address. It seems I can access & reply to all here.

To save icon space on my unit, is it safe to "hide" all my 10 email icons and just access messages through the ONE "message icon" (or will I suffer limitations at all)?

I tried the idea & it seems to work. However, I am not sure if I have given up some control or features by setting things up this way. Someone please comment on this?

I'm in the same boat, but only with 2 email. I can just hide the 2 for the emails and it will show them to me in the message icon?? That's sweet!!!

I like to keep my e-mail separated with my sms, so I actually always hide te message icon and dispaly the e-mail and sms icon on my home screen... weird? I think it's more organized.

I don't care where it comes from as long as I get it. I only use one of them for a couple of things. Business alerts mostly. The other is more personal. As long as I get them, it doesn't matter to me where they come from.

To each thier own!!

Here is a little tip to sort the email in that box. If you create a custom search for your email address and give them hot keys once in the message folder you can use the hotkey to filter out email for only 1 account.

That is if you care to have them separate.
