    Newbie post, sorry!

    I have my blackberry storm (9500) only had it since Firday, so still getting used to it. I love it btw!

    I managed to set up my AOL email account on the phone, and at first the email was working well.

    I now cannot get any email to this account on my phone. I emailed my AOL account from my work email, nothing. If I use my phone to email my AOL account, it comes through straight away.

    When I got home yesterday I checked my email on my laptop, and found I had a few, but they had not come through to my BB.

    From what I have read from searching, it takes 15 minutes maybe more for a new email to come through, so I can understand a delay, but to not get them at all?
    I have I been a tit and set some setting wrong?
    I have also done a battery pull and resent my service books.
    Any help would be great!!

    AOL has stopped working for me too. I got a message on my BB sayig I needd to validate my AOL account. I went to AOL to do it and it just keeps sending me to the "get a free aol account" screen, telling me I need to reactivate my free account.

    WTF????????????????

    Same issue. Interestingly I don't get the message when using Firefox. When using IE I get a message to sign up to the "new AOL" even though I already have a free account. Everytime I try to submit, it takes me in circle back to the sign up page. And I have gotten the validate request on my BB since this AM. I checked and there was an email that came in at 4AM EST so this is obviously an AOL issue that developed early this AM.

    Just go into manage internet email and change the password of the account or re-enter the password, after that resend your service books and you should be good

    Well, the validate option just started working on BB email setup. Earlier this AM, I received an error message.
