How well does Blackberry handle junk/spam/unimportant emails?
Hi,
I do not own nor have ever used a BB, but I am considering changing my service provider and purchasing either a Curve or a Pearl. To ease your reading, I've bolded my main questions.
I would mainly be using BIS services. (However, I am starting work next summer and they may have BES... They do not give out/pay for BB for entry-levels such as myself, but they most likely have BES services.. is it easy/possible to switch from BIS to BES or do I need to get entirely new hardware?)
I have 2 emails I use quite frequently... one is Gmail and one is a school-provided email. (I assume that with BIS I will be able to configure the POP required for the school provided email?)... however, I tend to have a lot of junk (read: unimportant, not necessarily spam) emails on both of them.
I typically try and delete as many as I can, but typically I just leave unimportant emails unread (eg. I have over 700 unread emails in both of my accounts).
My question is, how well does BB handle these junk emails? How do you guys deal with your unimportant emails?
I could imagine random buzzing from my BB every hour to some unimportant email very irritating after a while...Do I just have to get into the habit of deleting them every time they pop up or is there some sort of BB-side smart-filter? How easy is it to delete unwanted email?
Any tips on how you guys handle your not-spam-but-not-important-emails being pushed to your BBs?
Thanks so much from a newbie/prospective addict!
