The Mail app for iPad lets you add multiple email accounts from multiple email service providers, but if you're not familiar with the iOS 4 operating system, changing accounts can be confusing at first. Apple lets you set a default email account in your Settings app, which will be the automatic "From" email address when you write new email messages. However, you can also select different email addresses to change between accounts in the open message window.
