- When I finally switch to VZW and get my Curve (next week ), I'll only get BIS, since I'm just a student. Will I be able to get my student e-mail (MS Exchange 2003 with Outlook Web Access) pushed to the BB, or would the require the BES? I know I ca access the web client from my BB, but I'd like the emails to be pushed. If all else fails, I guess I can set up forwarding to Gmail and then get the Gmail account pushed to the BB, right?

You'll need the the URL for the Exchange server, username, password and the mailbox name. (Hover mouse pointer Inbox, look at the bottom of your browser: https://<domain.name.com>/exchange/< mailboxname>/Inbox.) If you don't see it, you may need to enable the Status Bar on the browser, usually View > Status Bar.

I go to my account on the Verizon Blackberry site but when I set up the e-mail address, I need to put in the password incorrectly so it breaks the automatic setup and gives me the option to manually enter settings for Outlook Web Access.11-04-08 05:55 PMLike 0
- Hey guys, I recently got the BIS with OWA to work on my Curve, however the only e-mails that are pushed to my phone are those to my Outlook Inbox folder...I receive nothing from any of the folders I have setup. Any ideas?
Example:
Inbox <-----I only receive from this folder...

I am working with ATT tech support to try and fix that issue.
