How do I turn Push off?
 

Besides deleting email accounts, is there any way I can turn Push off? I go offshore and have no service. When I get back in, I have 20 jillion emails on my Blackberry that I have already read. It would be nice to be able to disable it without deleting the address from my phone.

log into BlackBerry Internet Service you could just set up a filter for each address to not forward to handheld

Not sure you can do that. You can go into your email client on your PC and change the "Leave Mail on Server" option so that once you d/l to your PC, it will be deleted. Just be sure not to have mail d/l to the BB, otherwise it is gone.

Another option would be to delete those email accounts in BIS (if that is how you get your mail) and reinstate once you get to where you need the mail.

looks like this is what I'll need to do, I was just hoping there was an easier alternative.

did you try the suggestion that I made? this will just be deleting a filter when you get back.

no, no service right now, I'm in the middle of the GOM.
