Multiple e-mail addresses under one contact issue

[Fetter]

Hello everyone.

I've been looking for an answer to this issue for quite some time now and thought I'd stop here to see if anyone has ever had the same issue or even better... solved it.

I have a contact on my phone and the only thing listed in it are4 e-mail addresses. The reason for this is I get text alerts on certain things from work. They all relate to the same overall job so I added each one to the same exact contact called "CCA".

The problem lies in the fact that when I get the messages from those email addresses, they each still stay in their own text message thread. Each thread is called CCA.

I've got the LG Marquee with Gingerbread 2.3.4. Not rooted.

Has anyone ever run into this or heard of a fix for this? It's rather annoying and a few guys at work would love to see an answer on it. Thanks in advance!

So, these text alerts are sent from e-mail addresses? Just to clarify, they come through as SMS and not e-mail messages, right?

If so, you could try using an alternative SMS application such as Handcent or GoSMS and see if it will either group the messages under one thread by default, or give you an option to do so. These applications are generally much more robust than the stock Messaging app.

Yes, these are e-mails sent to my phone so recieve them via text message.

I currently use Handcent so no luck there unfortunately.

Has anyone else had this issue?
