Where are these emails coming from?????

We had to reformat my hard drive as a result of a problem with MS Outlook. The Blackberry software re-loaded fine and is running fine with one exception - I'm getting absolutely innundated with emails from what seems to be a RIM server (over 200 emails in the last 2 days!). Here's a sample:

All the emails seem to be identical with the exception of the return address - the etp numbers change each time. There's also an etp.dat file (301 b) attached to each email.

This never happened prior to reloading the software, and it's driving me nuts - the mail alert is going off constantly. I've already had over 60 of these emails just this morning.

Can anyone help make it stop?????

You may want to reinstall the blackberry software on your computer. Uninstall it then reinstall. After you do that, redo the software on your blackberry. It's going to take you a minute but you can try that. Before you do that though, try resending your service books first to see if that helps.

just out of curiosity, do you have your phone connected to your PC? and do you have the settings on the redirector for the desktop manager to not deliver when the phone is connected?

The issue here is because when you installed your blackberry desktop manager you chose blackberry enterprise server, as apposed to blackberry internet service during the initial configuration.

Go into your service books on your hand held, and delete any service books that say desktop.

Then reinstall your desktop manager client and make sure you select blackberry internet service during the installation.

That should fix your issue, no need to wipe your hand software on your phone.

Thank you all so much for your advice - I've deleted the service books that said desktop, and I've reloaded the software, ensuring the internet and not the enterprise option was selected. Now I'll wait for the beep and keep my fingers crossed that it's not another ream of emails from space ... :eek:

I think things will be ok! Welcome to CB.

Probably a dum questions but.........Can you still do that if you have a company phone that does not have internet access???

Thanks...
