/windows/rings or /my documents/my ringtones/ for ring tones.

/windows/ for email, alram, sms alerts.

Noob question here, are you able to custom tones for EACH email account?

I really need a power user to be my friend for a few weeks while I get to know this thing..I'm switching over from Palm and completely baffled with all the customizations that can be done with WM.

Out of the box you are not able to setup different alerts for individual email accounts. However I think you can with PocketMax PhoneAlarm, though I am not sure.

They have a trial dowload available for both the Lite and Pro versions. Give it a try and see what you can do.

As for helping you out with your Palm-to-Windows Mobile migration, that is what we are here for!
