- To be quite honest with you very few consumers use POP3 and I have not come across one large corporation that does either. I have come across a few small medium enterprises that do though.
Blackberry is just going the consumer route. Besides POP3 is a dying, near extinct breed.
Anyway, you're welcome to stick with your 9800 but you will be sticking with it for a very long time. BIS will eventually be phased out as well so you will have to switch to one of the solutions provided here unless you just skip having mails on your phone and deal with them only on a pc.
Turns out, I'm not. And I'm guessing a lot of ISPs never added an IMAP option like mine never did.
We've all been happily using our pop3 emails tied to the BIS with no problems - until now. (Well, not me personally - no Z10 in the states yet - just going from what I'm reading here.)02-06-13 09:45 AMLike 0 - The responses in this and other threads on this issues tells me that POP3 just may be used more than you think. As popular as gmail is - I'll never use it, and for years I felt like I was the last of dying breed that still relied on their ISP provided email service for personal email.

It will still poll the server every 15 minutes while leaving a copy in your inbox. I just tested this on my iPhone and BlackBerry 9900 with a carrier email address I just set up.
BIS never really instantly pushed POP3 mails to the device. The NOC instead of the phone just polled the server at a given interval and then pushed it to the device when there was a new message.
The only difference with Blackberry 10 is that the NOC doesn't do the polling it is the handset itself.02-06-13 01:38 PMLike 0 - POP3 is no different on Blackberry 10 than it is on BIS.

BIS/NOC polled every 15 minutes but if it found an email it was every 3 minutes until 15 minutes had passed without an email, then it went back to 15 minutes. Plus now that that the handset does the polling you have an additional drain on the battery of the handset, rather than the servers polling and pushing to the phone.02-06-13 01:44 PMLike 0

Are you perhaps using BES? I know POP3 on BES is instantly delivered as I have a client with a similar setup.02-06-13 01:46 PMLike 0 -
While on the surface this sounds like a small change, it isn't. BIS doesn't consume your plan's data to poll for POP messages. Data is only used when a message is being pushed to the phone.02-06-13 01:49 PMLike 0 - POP3 is handled completely differently in BB10 than with BIS.

- It's completely different. With BIS devices, the BIS servers polled the POP account and pushed any messages out to the phone. With non BIS enabled devices such as the BB10 devices, the device itself must poll the POP server every xx minutes, resulting in unnecessary data consumption and battery life reduction.
Messages that were found on the POP account were instantly pushed to the device.

And yes the email will have been pushed to your device once the NOC had done its polling but that message could have been sent as much as 15 minutes ago. So no, it wasn't push email in the strict sense of the word.02-06-13 01:57 PMLike 0 -
15Minutes for 1.Mail...and every 2.eMail all 3Minutes. But this worst Case is not real using...If he sent the 2.Mail at Minute 2,59 you have it instant. Average delaying time is ok for the normal user. This scenario is impossible for BB10 with POP3.

"Polling for mails uses so little data it is not even worth mentioning. I have an exchange account setup on my iPhone and I still get great battery life"
Its not the data, but the use of either cellular or wifi power, both draining. The iPhone using an ActiveSync account uses push not polling (although you can set it to poll).02-06-13 02:30 PMLike 0 - Try this settings for yahoo email http://help.yahoo.com/kb/index?page=...YXmjiotgNMcRAg

See even 15 minutes delay doesn't bother me, what bothers me is my handset connection and battery will be consumed more than usual as BB10 handset is going to check for new email and not BIS server.02-06-13 02:48 PMLike 0 - oh Hush:

I know my exchange account uses push and it cannot be changed, but the point is even though I'm always connected to the exchange server I still get great battery life. It's not like it depletes the battery in record time.02-06-13 02:49 PMLike 0 - Just for any novice reading through, pop3 is not push, period. Its not a push protocol, never will be, it can only poll. So to the people claiming they're getting push email with pop3, you're wrong. You may become confused if your test is a test email you send then open your email on the phone to check. This will perform a manual poll, OK instead of the timed poll. The real test is to leave email closed on the phone, not touch the phone and send an email. This way you aren't refreshing the mail. If you want to sync contacts/calendar pop doesn't do this02-06-13 02:52 PMLike 0

- BIS should have less battery impact. The way RIM's push works is the BIS sends your phone a message over the mobile network (like an SMS), which your phone is monitoring already anyways for things like SMS. You don't need to keep open an IP connection the way you do for things like IMAP-IDLE.02-06-13 02:54 PMLike 0

BIS uses an always on data connection with your carrier which is really no different than an Exchange connection. What is debatable is the impact that connection has on battery performance.02-06-13 03:04 PMLike 0 - It's not sent like an SMS... Because when you turn off the data on your phone you receive nothing. No BBM's, no emails, no Facebook notifications. Etc etc.

FYI there is a special dedicated IMAP server for Blackberry users maintained by Yahoo. I don't know at this point with BB10 if there is any distinction between using that server and the 'generic' Yahoo IMAP servers. (I posted the hostname earlier in this thread)02-06-13 09:53 PMLike 0 - OmnitechDragon SlayerIt's pseudo-push, as I and others have repeatedly pointed out. You are just moving the polling process from your mobile device to RIM's BIS POP client servers.
Neither is it "instantaneous" unless you were lucky enough to get an incoming message immediately prior to the next scheduled poll.
Yes, it has certain efficiency advantages, whether those are dramatic or not with BB10 is an open question. If I had a BB10 device in my hand I would have already done those tests.
It also has some drawbacks, as outlined previously.
Oh and BTW, I'd like a pony too.twstd.reality likes this.02-06-13 09:57 PMLike 1 - BIS to the phone is full push. How BIS gets the email is a different issue I'd rather have the BIS servers doing the work than my phone and data plan.
