ok so i was wondering if i could configure microsoft 2003 to pull in my blackberry email like it (outlook) does with hotmail and gmail and all... and if so how do i go about doing this? other than just hooking the cord up and syncing it because a lot of time i dont have signal to get email and all on my phone.

if your talking about BIS it's not possible. There is no incoming mail server so no way to set up Outlook

Correct, if we're talking about the blackberry.net address it can be used to send to for receipt on you BlackBerry only.
