    How to add folder icon to the blackberry home screen?

    I have an old blackberry 8700c, I want to create a home screen icon that takes me directly to the SMS Inbox folder, or to a specific folder from my exchange mailbox, how do I do that?
    I found out that pressing alt with the wheel lets me move or delete an existing icon from the homescreen, but how do I add an entirely new one ?

    That's what it look like: http://www.cebst.com/blackberry+8700c.jpg

    How to add folder icon to the blackberry home screen? - It is easy!
    • Enable IMAP in your Gmail settings.
    • From your BlackBerry home screen, select the BlackBerry Set-up icon, then choose Personal Email Set-up. (On older devices, just look for the Personal Email Set-up icon.)
    • Select Personal Email Set-up.
    • Accept Terms and Conditions.
    • On the 'Email Account Set-up' page, enter your full email address (including '@gmail.com' or '@your_domain.c om') but leave the 'Password:' field blank. Select Next.
    • You'll see a screen that says 'We were unable to configure [username@gmail. com].' Select I will provide the settings to add this email account, then Next.

      Um... No. And don't do it again unless you want to get banned.
