    ...stopped receiving e-mail sometime after 1AM last night (EST).

    Tried all the usual, re-sending service books etc. and have received some intermittent messages, but nothing consistent.

    Browser and SMS working fine.

    BIS probably just down again.

    I'm with Bell and email messages are finally starting to come through but very S L O W L Y.

    There should be better communication between RIM and it's partners when an outage occurs this is getting ridiculous !!

    So is Facebook affected by this? My FB app stopped sending my notifications entirely shortly BEFORE my gmail went down.

    Yes, FB notifications are emails.

    You've gotta love PR. It affected *all* BIS users, did it not?

    Not that crackberry is the end-all-be-all of all blackberry users, but if it didn't affect ALL BIS users, I bet we'd find at least one or two on here saying "I've had no problems".

    Not happening.
    Yeah, really! Since it hit mostly North America, I guess they can skew it and say SOME. Semantics. ALL North America, SOME Worldwide! LOL...ALL North America is a PR nightmare though!

    Getting emails here in NY in dribs and drabs. Last one was sent to me at 11:38am today....the queue is probably backed up and you'll get your emails as they were received on the servers. probably take a few hours to clear them out!

    By the way, its freakin freezin here on Long Island! and no email to keep me warm! ha!

    Try a battery pull. I hadn't gotten any messages for about an hour after I got the first bunch, and after a battery pull, another huge batch came in. No battery pulls since, and they've kept coming in batches, so I'd say it's worth a shot.

    Also, I haven't sent service books,and I've been getting emails, so while it probably doesn't hurt (outside of increasing the volume of stuff waiting to come to you), I don't know whether that will really help what we're experiencing here.

    It came up briefly--twice--and nothing since then.

    ETA: did multiple battery pulls, with no change.
