Windows Phone 8 provides a number of settings
that you can use to control the way that your phone handles email
messages. For example, you can use the various settings to do things
like linking multiple mailboxes together or enabling conversation view
for messages.
Linking Mailboxes
Although Windows Phone 8 supports the use of
multiple mailboxes, some people prefer to access all their mail through
a single mailbox. This can be accomplished through mailbox linking.
When you link mailboxes, all the mail from those mailboxes is displayed
as if it existed in a single mailbox. To link mailboxes, open one of
the mailboxes you want to link and follow these steps:
1. Tap the Menu icon.
2. Tap Link Inboxes.
3. Tap the name of the mailbox to which you want to link.
4. Tap Rename Linked Inbox.
5. Give your Inbox a name that reflects its purpose.
6. Tap the Done icon.
7. The linked mailbox
is displayed on the Start screen under the name you assigned to it.
Multiple mailbox icons designate it as a collection of linked mailboxes.
