Different Ringtone Notifications for Text and Email

I would like to assign different ringtone notifications for texting and email, and if possible, different ringtones for each of my two email accounts.  I need to see texts immediately, but not emails.  Am picking up the phone 50 times a day so I don't miss a text, critical to my work. Could do this on Bb Storm, but can't figure out on Incredible.  At a minimum, I would like to shutoff notification for email, and just get pinged for texts.  Thanks!!

If you use Handcent for your text messaging program, you can assign any tone, a ringtone or even a song to be the notification. You can also set it up so you are notified every so often for 'x' amout of times about a text that has arrived.

Well, 

 

The default notification tone that you set in the Settings->Sound is for the default tone in the generic e-mail account and all other notifications.  If you use the Gmail client, you can set your own personal ringtone in it's settings (Menu->Settings).  In the messaging Application you can also set a custom notification sound from there as well (Menu->Settings)

 

As for different e-mail accounts using the same e-mail application, I don't think that is possible with the in stock app...tho I am not totally sure I haven't use it like that before.

 

Hope that helps!
