As I recall, I had to initially upgrade the software on the device to have options to separate the mailboxes. I'm an avid SMS user, and having the SMS messages get dumped in "messages" meant they would get lost. Same with my personal email. Let me find the option....Options\General Options\SMS & Email inboxes: separate. For the separate email, I just went through the icon "personal email setup" and it set it up separate. Maybe the difference is I use Lotus Notes and my mail is on an IBM Domino server. Anyhow, I am happy to be on a BES with separate work, personal, & sms icons and inboxes.

Unfortunately my BES admin is a little reluctant to try new things, if it aint broke dont fix it kind of guy. But i will encourage him to pursue this. Although i have a feeling he will not do anything until HTML email is in the picture. David- You are correct that all imap/pop3 email accounts that you add to your device are given their own email "mailbox" on your home screen. However, when your Berry is connected to a BlackBerry Enterprise server, the server redirects email from your office email account (In my case an Exchange account) and these messages ONLY populate to the general "messages" mailbox. Hence the source of my frustration. So for me $20 bucks is a drop in the bucket compared to the alternative. Joe–Thank you very much for this tip!

And use profiles to assign that email account a distinctive notification method? I mean, if you've got a half dozen email addresses on your berry, it can be quite confusing browsing through the Messages app (where they are all moshed together into one inbox), but every email address can have it's own separate icon on the desktop so I'm not getting the point of paying $20 for this???
