Linking inboxes is simple: Select More (“…”), Manage accounts. Here, you’ll see the new Link inboxes options.

Tap that and then choose which accounts you wish to link, and optionally change the name of the linked inbox. (As with previous Windows phone versions, you can of course have multiple linked inboxes, assuming you have enough accounts configured on the phone.)
