    No, the messages folder is designed to capture everything and it sounds like you are saying that message, which is being set to your gmail account, also appears in the gmail box. No way to stop that if you maintain a separate mailbox for gmail on your device.

    You can separate your SMS into a separate box though:
    Open the Messages box > BBMenu Key > Options > General Options > Scroll down to SMS and Email Inboxes and select Separate.

    You will now have an SMS icon with only SMS messages. They won't appear in the Messages box either.

    Cool. so i can hide the message box and i'll just get my sms/mms in that one and email in my email one?

    I went ahead and got rid of the gmail app, kinda pointless having both that and the app for emails on the phone, plus i can attach using the app on the phone, and i think it views pics and html.. so we're good.. thanks Need those thanks buttons here.
