Hi there.

I recently purchased my first BlackBerry, so I am not sure if there are model specfic (Pearl 8100) or general BB questions, so here goes:

1) Is there a way to tell either the phone or the RIM service to send a copy of any email I send to my 'Sent' imap folder on my email server? I miss the record of having sent items stored there when I use the BB to compose and send email.

2) Is there a feature on the phone to tell how much data you have used (up and down)?

Thank you.

Come on guys, where is the love?

1) Im not sure, never used IMAP on a BlackBerry. This occurs with a BES server though (Exchange, Domino, Groupwise).

2) There is not a way. I believe someone was working on an application to do this but don't think they were ever able to get it 100% working.

Many people have asked for a program that keeps a tally on data use but no one has come up with a solution yet. It would be nice to see a finished product.

See if your carrier can help on the data usage -- either way, your monthly bill should give you some indication.

Unfortuantely right now that's the only way.

I'm sure others have their own way, but I can tell you what I did to have my sent emails also appear in my sent items. Note that I don't use IMAP, I'm not on BES and I use Outlook.

1) Create an email for this task. (I have a domain, so I created an email account )

2) Log into your BIS and enter this new email address in the Auto-BCC field

3) In Outlook, set up a rule to have emails sent to , go directly to the Sent Items folder


Like I said, I'm not the most tech-savvy person there is, so I'm sure there might be a better way to do this, but this is what I do and it works for me.

Hope it helps.

Thank you.

In the UK you pay $$$ per month and there's no additional data usage charges, so frankly who cares??

Those who don't have unlimited data. That's who cares.
