Description
BlackBerry Internet Service Email
You can add up to ten email addresses for supported email accounts to your BlackBerry
Internet Service Email account. The BlackBerry Internet Service is designed to retrieve and
deliver email messages from these integrated email accounts to your device as well as provide
wireless email reconciliation for supported integrated email accounts.
You can create a BlackBerry email address that you can use to send and receive email
messages on your device. You can also open attachments on your device.
BlackBerry® Mail
You can create a BlackBerry email address to send and receive email messages on your
device.
You cannot integrate other email accounts with your device or open attachments on your
device. You can set up your BlackBerry email address to forward email messages and
attachments that you send and receive to another email address.
social networking
You can add up to two email addresses to the BlackBerry Internet Service. The email addresses
must be the email addresses that you have set up to receive notifications for Facebook® for
BlackBerry® devices or MySpace® for BlackBerry® devices. The BlackBerry Internet Service
forwards notifications for these social networking applications to your device. You cannot
send or receive email messages from your BlackBerry device using these integrated email
addresses.
For more information about setting up notifications, see the Facebook for BlackBerry
Smartphones User Guide or the MySpace for BlackBerry Smartphones User Guide.
For information about changing your messaging service plan, contact your wireless service provider.
