Description
Expected behavior
The unified inbox capability is awesome. It's very close in functionality to what Blackberry email did, where mail from multiple folders (but not ALL folders) could be handled on mobile. I use and love the unified inbox for work email. (accessing exchange with IMAP and SMTP)
I would like to have the same easy multi-folder capability for my personal email, which I self-host with postfix and dovecot. But I don't want both work and personal email to be mixed in one unified inbox. I want them separate.

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the existing unified inbox behavior and the issue discussion, then determine how separate saved searches or unified inboxes should be configured for work and personal accounts. Done means multiple folder-based inboxes can remain separate rather than being mixed together.
