Does "All Inboxes" label which email inbox the email you are reviewing is linked with?

If I am in the "All Inboxes" mail option, and I have multiple inboxes set up, is there a way to tell which inbox an email was sent to? Obviously, one option would be to enter each inbox separately until I find the email, but I'm hoping for a quicker option.

If you have yourself as a contact, you will see your name in the "to" in the header. If you touch your name and scroll down in your contact you will see "Recent" next to the email address header that that email was sent to.

Edit: You can also reply to the email, and it will default in your "From" with the email address it was sent to. You can just "cancel" out of the reply email.

Thanks a lot. I’ve always seen the “recent” label but never knew it linked with the inbox the email was sent to. I think they could use a better term than recent. Thanks again.

I agree, it took me a while to figure that one out, and I'm a software engineer. I can imagine that my 76 year old parents with iphone 6's will never be able to figure that one out, or even notice the "recent" label is there.
