Blackberry email Unicode Capers...

Post by Welly »

One of our Clients' has just sent me an email from his Blackberry Pie and when I replied using this here sit-down computer with wires an' all my reply was not stored anywhere by Outlooky so I thought I'd fluffed it so dreamt up another similarly sounding (and noncommittal) reply :|

Fing is - what's going on? why won't it save in the "sent" box? and did/could my email actually be sent to that Blackberry doodad :?

Is it time to go home yet?

That's strange, it should have gone to sent items :?

There shouldn't be anything unusual amount emailing a dingleberry, corporate ones are plumbed into MS Exchange using either "Blackberry Enterprise Server" or desktop redirector; personal ones forward the email to a normal POP account which pushes the emails to the handset.

Very strange :?

GAH! NO!

POP3 has to be pulled from a server, it is not pushed. See RFC1939 :P

Trust you Matt :oops: I know what I meant, I just didn't type it right :supafrisk:
Ok, you have a POP3 account associated with your BlackBerry Internet Service account which then pushes it to the device. So there.
