About Messages
The unified inbox on your BlackBerry device gathers all the messages that you receive from your different accounts into
one convenient location. Receive and respond to email, text messages, or
BBM chats all in the same place. Read your
Twitter or Facebook messages, or send messages to your LinkedIn connections. It's all possible with the unified inbox.
Here are the types of messages that you can send and receive in the unified inbox:
• Email: You can add practically any existing email account to your device--both work and web-based email.
• Text messages (SMS/MMS): If text messaging is a part of your wireless service plan, you can find all of your text
messages in the unified inbox.
• Social networking: Add a Facebook account to your device to receive notifications for messages, wall posts, likes, and
comments and to send Facebook messages. Add a Twitter account to keep on top of your @mentions and to send
direct messages. Add a
LinkedIn account to stay in touch with important business connections.
• BBM and instant messaging: After you add an instant messaging account to your device, you can access your chats
through the unified inbox.
