BlackBerry email address
A BlackBerry email address is an email address that you can create to send and receive messages on your BlackBerry device.
If you have an existing email account, and your mail service provider supports email message forwarding, you can forward email
messages that you receive in your existing email account to your BlackBerry email address and open them on your BlackBerry device.
If you upgrade to the BlackBerry Internet Service, you can keep your original BlackBerry email address.
BlackBerry enabled device
A BlackBerry enabled device is a device with BlackBerry Connect software, a device with BlackBerry Built-In software, or a device
that is running the BlackBerry Application Suite. BlackBerry enabled devices provide users with access to BlackBerry device
applications and BlackBerry services.
BlackBerry Internet Service
The BlackBerry Internet Service is designed to provide subscribers with automatic delivery of email messages, mobile access to email
message attachments and pictures, and access to Internet content.
Subscribers can add email addresses for existing, supported email accounts to the BlackBerry Internet Service. The BlackBerry Internet
Service is designed to retrieve email messages from these integrated email accounts and deliver them to subscribers' BlackBerry
devices. The BlackBerry Internet Service is also designed to reconcile email messages between the subscribers' BlackBerry devices
and their email accounts over the wireless network, so they do not need to manage their email messages twice.

content for their BlackBerry devices. Subscribers create a BlackBerry email address that they use to send and receive email messages
on their BlackBerry devices.
