Convergence enables you to create and manage additional email account profiles in addition to the default profile. You can create multiple profiles for accounts that allow POP access. By creating multiple profiles, you can manage your email from Convergence. The email messages are collected in a designated folder (Inbox by default). You can send, receive, reply, or forward, email by using Convergence, instead of using other services. To know more about how to collect email from external accounts, see Collecting Email From External Accounts.
User profiles created for external accounts are saved as identities in Convergence. These identities appear under the Mail options in a drop-down list. When working with email, you can select any of the configured identities to send, reply, or forward email.
