I got my blackberry so customers can email me orders and I can have them shipped the same day. I just got it yesterday. When I send emails they get to the recieving party almost instantly, but when someone emails me it takes me about 5 or more hours to get them. Is this normal or is something going wrong?

How fast is the mail showing in your actual inbox (what you would see on a PC)?

i sell on ebay too so i get my notices if I sold something. Well I sold something about noon and if I knew I sold it, I could have shipped it today but I still have not got the winning email but it was in my gmail inbox about a minute after it was sold

I am not having a problem.

Consider deleting the account and adding it back on what I assume is BIS.



Make sure you have not checked any filters.

i got 3 emails in the last 45 minutes at different times so it looks like it should be working now. Usually when I got emails it would be like 5 hours worth of them at a time

Hopefully, I did NOT give you a temporary fix.

Gmail seems to be having wide spread issues as of late. I'm seeing some significant delays in my forwarding as well. Generally it's not a problem, as I don't have many time sensitive emails coming in. I'm aware of folks using POP and IMAP having such issues. I myself am on IMAP and it's been happening on and off for about the last two weeks. I suspect a Google issue rather than a RIM one.
