Need Blackberry Help
I am using a new Blackberry. Two things: (1)I get endless spam. I am using web client and the BB does not have the protection of my desktop (Router firewall+Windows firewall+Norton Antispam). Any way to stop this? (2) The 10mb mailbox fills up quickly and I have to go online to clean it out. Due to problem #1, this is frequent. The BB browser is hopless. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance, |
1) Signup for spamcop and route all your blackberry email through them, or if you are handy try setting up your own email server with Spam Assassin, that is what I did and I never see any spam on my Berry.
2) If you are with T-mobile phone them and request a 50Mb mail box, that is free of charge but might require quite a bit of calling around... Also, try the filters at the web client, before I went with Spam Assassin I had over 50 spam filters. The web client also has an "auto-aging" feature that will delete email after a certain amount of time, if you always read your email in a certain amount of time then this will help a lot. |
Scott, I owe you a beer!
Took lots of talking and lots and lots of waiting but got ATT to increase mailbox to 25m and I have also gotten smarter about auto delete and reconcile. Going to look at Spamcop next. ALso intrigued by ATT;s "Office Online". Any experience with it (Scott or anyone else). I gather I would then be reading email off of my desktop (leaving it on is not a problem). Thanks again, |
