I am sorry, I meant "Messaging" shortcut... the icon is a mailbox 
I just received my Droid 2 and having a problems with having multiple e-mail accounts.
My original droid worked fine with all of this.
I have 2 different personal e-mail accounts setup.
When I click e-mail, it just defaults to the default e-mail address and I have no way of switching accounts. I have to change the default e-mail account in order to view the other account.
Along with having a shortcut on the home page to each e-mail account, it always just goes to the default one and no way of adding a shortcut to both.
When I did this on the original droid, i could choose which e-mail account I wanted a shortcut for and could obviously have both on the home screen.
I also have found no way to NAME the accounts, ex. Comcast & Work.
That way I could distinguish the difference between the 2 on my home screen even if I could get a shortcut to both.
not sure how this could be overlooked but I sure dont think there is a way to make this happen.
Also, what is with 2.2 System and not allowing you to put it in silent mode?
I updated my original Droid to 2.2 and could no longer make it silent with the volume button on side or going into the sound settings and changing it to silent, it would always stay on vibrate.
And now it does the same thing with Droid 2. I cant make it silent at all.
Any ideas on either issue
I can't help you with the emails accounts.
I just tested putting mine in silent mode and it works fine. You have to change the vibrate notification too.
ok I got the silent problem fixed.
The update changed vibrate to be always, even when on Silent mode.
The e-mail problem however is stll an issue and I realy hope they release an update to fix this.
I'm sure I'm not the only one with 2 e-mail accounts on their droid.

I never had an original Droid, so I can;t compare to what was on that. For me, I am using the "Messaging" app - it seems to be set up for multiple e-mail accounts better than the email app. Messaging is the one recommended by the manufacturer - give that a try.
Add the "Mailbox" shortcut to your home page. When you click on it, it should show all of your accounts (text, social and email)...

Ok, that does enable me to choose the inbox i want to see.
Problem still being I cant create a shortcut to both but at least I can view both easier.
Thanks !
Is there any way to get the ringer-to-vibrate-to-silent (vib off) mode to work like before, where you could use all 3 settings just from the volume button?
I have gone into the menu and find the four choices for vibrate to be nearly useless. I want to be able to choose "vibrate only" AND "completely silent no vibrate" from my volume button, and with the new update I just can't do it.
FWIW I can't access more than one email account either (easily). I just stopped using the others. I feel so trained!!! 😛
