BlackBerry push e-mails..

[Salohcin]

Felt that this would be the best section to ask this question on.

I've decided to get a BlackBerry, as I need an all-in-one organising and communication device - and e-mailing is generally going to be a major part of my usage of it. I use Outlook Express on my PC with an e-mail address of my own domain.

I then read somewhere that BlackBerry only gets e-mails from internet-based e-mail accounts (I assume this means Hotmail/Googlemail/Yahoo) - is this correct? If so, how do I overcome this problem and ensure that my Outlook Express e-mail account will go with my BlackBerry?

How does OE collect your email? If it's POP3 that's fine because you can set the Blackberry internet client to collect from a POP3 box.

blackberrys can recieve emails that are sent through exchange. not sure how you would set yours up but the ones we deal with at work are added to a bes server that has full push/pull functionality. therefore anything sent to your exchange email is forwarded to your blackberry.

hope this helps
