Hi im wondering if i can get my email on my blackberry or can i not use my isp's email. Thanks. Another question i have is when i get on the navigation it loads up everything and then when i type in a address it says i have a weak signal but i have full bars? Is there something wrong with the software or phone?

What is the network indicator showing? 1x, 1X, 1xev, or 1XEV? These are case sensitive so look carefully.

To setup email accounts on your BlackBerry see the information on the BlackBerryFAQ.

I think it was on 1EV but it works on 1X what do these mean?

as long as they are upper case your BlackBerry is able to send/receive email. Lower case letters and it cant.

Ok i setup my mail account, but im still confused should the all the messages in my inbox on my desktop be transfered to my blackberry inbox? is there some way i can test it? Thanks

Only new messages will come to the device

I sent one from my hotmail account to my blackberry and nothing happened? Am i missing something?

RIM only has true push email with GMail and Yahoo. For other email providers, it polls the email every 15 minutes.

That is not completely correct any longer, as ANY domain hosted with Google Domains or GoDaddy now are able to get the instant push email.

And ALL email on a BlackBerry is "true push"

O ok so basically i get emails from other people that are using isp's as there email right?

you get emails from anyone that sends it to an address you link to your blackberry

Then whats this True push and RIM all about sorry im really dumb when it comes to these things its my first one.

the device does nothing to get the email. the blackberry internet service checks all your integrated accounts, and sends that to the blackberry, (pushing the information to the device) rather than the device going to get it (pulling)
