About multiple message lists
Depending on your email setup option, you might be able to associate your BlackBerry® device with more than one email account. For
example, you might be able to associate your device with a work email account and one or more personal email accounts. If you associate
your device with more than one email account, multiple message lists might appear on your device. In a message list for a specific email
account, you can open and manage email messages for that email account, and you can send messages using the email address for the
email account. See the BlackBerry Internet Service Online Help for more information about associating your device with more than one
email account.
Depending on your theme, a separate message list might appear for SMS and MMS messages.
Use one message list or multiple message lists
By default, your BlackBerry® device theme determines whether SMS text messages appear in the same message list as email messages.

2. Click Options.
3. Click General Options.
4. Perform one of the following actions:
• To use one message list for all messages, set the SMS and Email Inboxes field to Combined.
• To separate SMS text messages from email messages, set the SMS and Email Inboxes field to Separate.

PIN messages from contacts in your organization. For more information, contact your system administrator.
