Hi all:
For those of you with pdas/iPhones, are you able to designate a different sound alert for each of your mailboxes? For instance, you have 2 different Yahoo pop accounts, both accessed through your pda. Can you differentiate sounds? And if not for Yahoo accounts, what about Microsoft Exchange? Can you set up a sound for MS Exchange vs. Yahoo?
Thanks for any info you can share. As background, I've got a Treo 750, and used to have no problem with having one sound for work email and one for personal, as we had Good Messaging software for work and it came with its own sounds. We've migrated to not using Good Messaging software and now all of my email is stuck with the same sound. I've confirmed on the Treo website that this is the case.
When I upgrade to either an iPhone or something else (soon), I want to be SURE that I can have different sounds for different email accounts.
With an iPhone, you can only designate one sound per event (email, text, calendar reminder, etc.). Also, the sounds can't be altered or added, you're stuck with what they've got on the phone (unless you hack the phone). This will probably change at some point, though.
not with the iPhone as far as I can tell.
java, with my Nokia N95 - no. one sound for email. that's it.
I ordered the 'puter parts last night! Thanks again to Gud, Scola, omnis & ND.
does this mean Mac folk can't be as smug anymore:

Oh, silly omnis, we'll always find a way.
oh for sure! New office mate was trying to create a group distribution list in Outlook. He could create the list, but couldn't mail to it. it wouldn't show up in his address book. Nothing. I was very smug knowing in Mac Mail/address book, I can create a group, and right+click it and select "send e-mail to ___".
My father's got a Dell Latitude (and it's so tiny and lovable that I want to squinch it).
The wireless network in the house is working, as we can see, because I am connected to it. The Latitude is also connected to it, but any requests for websites time out. Any idea what could be causing this problem? It's running XP and IE6.
