New email alerts/how do you know which account?

So here is my question, problem etc etc.. I have 3 email accounts on my TP2 and every time a new email comes in, I am not sure which account has the new email??? I can not find in the settings a way to give outlook, gmail, comcast there own ringtone/alert/sound etc..Yes I know I can look at the bubble icon, however when you are backed up in emails.. Much like phone calls..you only want to get to the most important ones..thanks for the help and If this answer is super obvious..then I aplogize in advance..

Only way is to look at the e-mail tab or in outlook. E-mails can't have specifically assigned sounds based on the account - same as how text message notifications can't be set according to contact. Sorry.

I have multiple e-mail accounts on my phone too, but I just look at the mail tab to see what's what.

I thought that was the answer but was not sure if anyone has found a work around..I saw on XDA someone was able to get different text alerts (from diff contacts) so who knows...maybe diffe email accts will be next? Thanks for the response

There is a little app called InboxTones. Not the most user friendly but I think it gets the job done. But I'm with you... it would be nice to have some kind of workaround for this.

SPB Shell lets you create notification icons for each account seperately. Though I must admit that sometimes they swap back and forth. At least it's only 1 click to get to the right account.

Could you elaborate on how to do that? I have SPB MS 3.5. Cannot find out how to do that.

Thank you.
