Aren't that supposed to be ask on their support, eh? :helpme

I set mine up through my phone service providers web page... TMobile in my case.

you should look into Exchange with BES. The only way to go with a blackberry.

I had to call at&t to do mine..it took like 5 minutes when they helped me

How do i set up a server?

i agree :thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup

Do you have a Blackberry Account with carrier? What carrier? Is the phone locked to a particular carrier? Is is brand new with instructions? Did you call the carriers tech support? Is the phone activated? Which model Blackberry is it?

You provide no info or details....:disgust

Forget the BES/Exchange comments. Not necessary.

just get an iPhone

generally it'll have a personal e-mail account activation icon. Or for example on ATT you go to att.com/blackberrystart and create a user/pass and input your PIN and server settings.

If your email provider has imap push you may be able to get an account to work.
The best so far is gmail and yahoo. I do believe they are the only ones supported by blackberry bis (blackberry internet service). You should have 2 accounts, 1 from your telco, and one for your bis. Create an account on gmail/yahoo, then log into your bis and add the account. On your blackberry desktop an icon should appear with the new email.
So far I've found gmail is the best. The mail will come almost as you press the send button! LOL Yahoo may delay sometimes. Other than that you may be sol.
You could try funambol, but I don't know of any providers that push email.

its in your main menu under icon "email setup" or go to http://www.blackberryforums.com/

I bought the Blackberry from another guy. No instructionsbooks, nothing! I kow absolutely nothing of blackberry, and I have no e-mail provider. I have to get it to work in europe.

I suspected that. If your in Europe , I'm assuming it is a GSM phone. It may or may not be locked. If its locked you can get a code to get it unlocked for a small fee, then you should be able use it for any GSM carrier. Open the phone up and see if the Sim card is labeled which may give you a hint as to which carrier the phone was last used on. The carrier will need to setup an account for you for the Blackberry Internet Service. This will provide a connection to their servers and the Blackberry backend mail servers. Once all that is done, you can use the setup icon mentioned by some to setup the email accounts.

Try t-mobile in Europe. They'll help you if they think you going to open a monthly account.

agreed. this is the way to go, i set this up for a lot of my clients and they love it

rtfm????????

Maye you could set one up for me? If anyone wants to do that for an amount of payment, please write to adam [at] bratsch.dk

what are the advantages of having a server for BES. Besides having your shit work when blackberry server is down.

any extra security or what not?
