Secondary email accounts

When secondary email account is configured, you can switch between accounts in Navigation drawer. The mails from selected email account is displayed on the top of the navigation drawer. The Calendar events for secondary accounts are displayed in different colors.

Adding a secondary account

In addition to your primary mail account you can configure and customize a secondary account on the same device using key-value pairs.
