I just picked up the Blackberry Pearl on Thursday for business/personal use and was wondering how I redirect my personal email account to my Blackberry?
Go to your carrier's website, look for support, Blackberry Internet Service, Setup Email account. You will need your e-mail username and password. The system should send along the service books which activate the e-mail service, but if there is a problem, service books can be sent from that site as well.
Yah thats the problem, I am creating an account, put in the PIN and IMEI and then it asks for a username and password, well it doesnt want to accept ANY password I try and use for my password. Nothing.
Will have to try and register using a Windows machine shortly.
When I first tried to register my BB through Cingular's BIS I had a similar problem. I was able to fix the problem by rebooting my BB. It had been stuck on GSM and couldn't be found on the network.
Does anyone know of a way to NOT have your personal email (via BIS) come into your Messages area and have that just be reserved for corporate exchange email coming from your BES? I can't handle my two personal email accounts coming into that area mixed with my main corporate email.
I know I have the icons to be able to just see the different accounts which is nice but I want them to just stay in that area.
It's not possible. Your closest option is to create a search (that pulls only mail from the BES inbox) and to bind it to a hotkey combination. Ther are definitely instructions in these forums.
