    Is there a setting on the BB and/or Outlook that allows you to read an email but not have it open on the other end.

    Example: If I read an email on the BB 8830 but do not want it to appear "read" within Outlook at the office, how would I configure it?

    Thanks!

    It should do this already. All it is doing is pushing the e-mail to your BB. When Outlook gets the e-mail, it will be new to Outlook and should show as unread.

    Both are viewing their on own and don't know what you have read on either device.

    If you are using BES, there is no way around this. That is the purpose of reconcile.

    Thanks! I just wanted to confirm that this was the case since I was using a BES server. Although, at times, you may get a situation where it's not reconciling properly and you have unopened emails on one side (BB) and not opened on the other (Outlook). But that's just a reconciling issue not a setting.

    I'm not using BES, but I have the same problem.

    I had the Storm and I could read e-mails on it without it affecting the "unread" status of my e-mails in Gmail. Now that I've got the 8830 though, reading an e-mail on the phone means that it's also read on Gmail.

    What do I need to change in order to leave e-mails unread in Gmail even after reading them on the phone?

    bump.

    i would like to accomplish 2 things at the same time, withOUT using the gmail app (AT&T Curve83XX):

    1. have the gmail copy remain unread regardless of what i do on my handheld
    2. have the option to delete on handheld, in mailbox, or both each time i choose to delete a message.

    any suggestions on how i can do both of these things at the same time would be great. thanks.

    #2 - go to email then menu to options. Check reconciliation settings.
