Thanks for the response. That's truly frustrating. There seems to be an older version or something of this that did list the name of the in-box. See around 0:59 seconds into this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwI5oHrd1vk
You can see the guy's inbox name listed above. The only reason I switched to K-9 was because I wanted emails to download to my device without worrying about them later disappearing if I deleted them off the server they were accessing (my home computer auto-deletes them off the server when I check them via my computer, which I do when I get home at night); but sometimes having the email on my phone as a reminder or something is preferable but I don't want to clog up the server or have to delete them myself off the server manually. Anyway, thanks, I really appreciate the feedback. At least I know I'm not going crazy.
