1 Question holding me back from selling my iP4
- Hello,
I work at an ad agency as a creative and I my life line is now most certainly emails.
Currently, I work off of an iPhone 4 (on Verizon) and it definitely doesn't push any of my mails unless I setup an exchange server (which I don't have) or setup a secondary gmail account, then proceed to add a google sync'd account, forward the mail from my work email server to the newly made gmail account, begin getting pushed emails and review them under the newly made gmail account mail box, go back to my work account to reply and feel the desire to hang myself. lmao
*takes a breather* My simple question is as follows;
Does the Blackberry take care of incoming emails for you, so you don't have to manually check your inbox. Does it alert you of an incoming email in real-time or does it only check every 5-15-30minute intervals? (My iPhone 4 has the ole' 15-30minutes check intervals but sometimes 15 minutes is far too late.)
Thanks in advance for the help, I greatly appreciate it.08-18-11 12:14 AMLike 0 - Yes and YES BB is the most Powerful Device when it comes to Email !
and it take a couple of sec to set up you email account
After that you don't have to worry about cheeking you mail box so often all you mails will be pushed and you get a notification of your email right on the home screen.
I love this future BB have.
Here is the 101 how to setup email.

Thank you both for clarifying that for me.
After watching the 9930 Verizon review of the phone, I'm very happy to see they finally produced a product that runs visually smooth just like the iPhone's always have. Not even Android runs visually as smooth, there's still some chop and "low framerate" issues when moving through menus etc. Very excited to take a trip to my Verizon store and see what I an do very soon... the only thing is, since I'm a new Verizon customer, I'm gonna have to pay retail right off the bat lol08-18-11 12:29 AMLike 0 - Just be careful of the fact that bb receives mails only under 3mb of size. if you don't receive large attachments, then bb is definitely the way to go
I heard rumors though, that during the fall there will be a BIS update that will support 10mb email size

- If your company uses a pop account you could simply set up a pop account on the iphone. You would just have to cc yourself each time to respond to email to keep a copy. That's how I've set up everyone on an iphone at the company I work for ( except for those on our exchange ).
Email is one thing the blackberry does better than any other phone out there.08-18-11 12:55 AMLike 0 - After having an iPhone and a blackberry, if you have BIS I think my iPhone actually received the emails a second or so earlier. That being said, the notifications on a bb are much better. Of course ymmv08-18-11 01:03 AMLike 0

- Every email account set up to BIS is push, some will have a 10-15 minute delay but the delay happens at the server and when the server gets it, it will push it to your blackberry.
There is no way of checking emails on a BB, they come to you
You can have up to 10 email accounts set up and an extra one that will only exist on your BB, it can't be checked online or on a PC, just on your BB.

Also you can select which emails you want pushed and customize it to your own liking.
Setting up a new email is quick as others have said, but the server will take approximately 20 minutes until you can start getting your emails pushed.08-18-11 01:32 AMLike 0 - If your company uses a pop account you could simply set up a pop account on the iphone.

Emails marked as Spam in your PC will not be sent to your BB by default.

To answer your question twelvezero8, I'm browsing eBay and they go used (16gb mind you) anywhere between 200-275 dollars. I do own my box, and all the original accessories, plus it has the invisishield on the front, but I kept it out of a case since I had the 15 dollars a month protection from Best Buy Mobile... though I can honestly say it's in great condition.08-18-11 01:39 AMLike 0
