I have five separate email accounts set up on my Windows Phone 7 device: Outlook, Hotmail, Yahoo and two personal domains. My understanding is the notification icons on the lockscreen are determined by the order accounts were added (Outlook is always there regardless, right?). I want my two personal domains to be the other two notifications on the lockscreen. How can I accomplish this? Do I have to remove the accounts altogether and re-add them? Do I do so in reverse order I want them to appear?

I was able to get the notifications I wanted by removing my four non-Outlook accounts from the phone, then re-added them starting with the two in order I wanted to show on the lockscreen.
- Open Phone Settings
- Go to "Lockscreen"
- Scroll down to "Choose apps to show quick status"
- Choose the items you want, and in the order you want, right there.
Enjoy!

2Thanks for the answer, but perhaps you missed my edit this is a WP7 device. Apr 5 '13 at 19:21

Ah, yes. Unfortunately, the WP7 OS doesn't give you that ability directly. The account delete and re-add is the workaround. Apr 21 '13 at 14:47

Right. The whole point of my question really was what order to re-add them. I was hoping to avoid having to remove and re-enter all of them (and I thought at some point I'd read you have to do it in reverse order of the order desired, but couldn't find it again), but unfortunately that wasn't the case.
