Devices running versions 2.0 and higher of the Android mobile operating system include a feature called "combined inbox." The pre-installed, default e-mail client app allows you pull incoming e-mail messages off multiple POP, IMAP and Exchange accounts. Combined inbox then lists all messages as part of the same inbox view. You can, for any configured e-mail account, choose to see the messages arrived to that account on their own separate inbox -- not as part of the combined inbox.
