This seems like a no-brainer, but I'm not finding anything like what I want. Is there an app that aggregates all your messages and handles them in one place? By that I mean a single app that lets you send and receive emails, and also send and receive text messages? BB took a step towards that with it's message center, but never fully integrated it. I have found my favorite individual apps (Aqua Mail and Chomp SMS). What I would like is to smoosh them together. :)
 
This may be more than you're looking for, but Executive Assistant integrates both EMail & Messages (in addition to any combination of calendar, tasks, missed calls, rss, facebook and/or twitter -- you choose which info you want to see).

You can reply to SMS/MMS messages directly from EA. Clicking on an AquaMail message in EA will open it in AquaMail, allowing you to reply from there. EA also integrates with K9, Kaiten, Enhanced Email, and TouchDown.

A free version is also available.

Cheers,
Steve
 
Mike,
I'm curious - what were the shortcomings of that app? From reading your requirements, and then the description of the app, it appeared to have everything you were looking for.

It calls other apps - for instance, it notifies you that you got an email. But to actually work with the email you have to tap the notifier and then it takes you to the email app. There is nothing wrong with that but I don't see the advantage to using this app to tell you stuff your notification bar says already. I'd like an app that was an email and SMS client. Unless I'm missing something about that app? It's seems pretty expensive to but just to play with.
 
FWIW, it does more than just notify you: it allows you to preview all of your selected info (email, sms, agenda, tasks, missed calls, facebook, twitter and/or google reader), all in a single, unified interface. Use it as a homescreen widget, or as a lock screen replacement (i.e., you can see the info without unlocking your phone), or as lockscreen widget (for Android 4.2 & up, or on other lockscreen apps like WidgetLocker). Here is a link to the free (ad-supported) version if you want to play with it.

Cheers,
Steve
