Default Text Message or Email?

Please Login to Remove!

Sorry in advance if this is a really basic question but I am a new BB user and have a problem. Under messages I can not tell email messages apart from text messages without looking at the message itself. This causes a problem when I go to respond......ie if I respond to an email address and not that person's text message they may not get it until they get to work....
Any thoughts on how to fix this problem I would appreciate.
Thanks in advance
HR


___update: I changed my theme to the verizon one from Dimension TOday and I do see a slight variation in the message icon next to text messages vs. email messages. Unfortunately the Today theme I like better for the calander events being on the home screen...oh well

On the 8830, you can segregate text messages and e-mail messages into different inboxes.

Messages > Options > General Options > SMS and Email Inboxes = Separate.

Yep, hit the RED hangup key, and then click the correct mail box.

When in the messages screen you can also hit Alt+s to bring up the sms messages, then the back key to get to emails

The headers should be completely different as well. SMS doesn't have subject lines, right (as one example)?
