    Help Stock GingerBlur email app, are individual notifications possible?

    I started using GB yesterday, and decided it was a good time to again try out the stock email app (had been using K-9). I have several email accounts on my phone, but I only want to be notified of new mail in two of them. I don't see any way to do this. Is this even possible in the stock...
