will receive an email message on your phone
welcoming you to BlackBerry Internet Service.
You have now set up BlackBerry Internet Service so that
you can send and receive email messages from the new
account that has been created in the list of messaging
accounts on your phone. Incoming email messages will
be sent to both your PC mail account and your phone.
Customizing your BlackBerry Internet
Service account
The BlackBerry Internet Service Web site allows you to
customize your account in a number of ways. It is worth
exploring the Web site to familiarize yourself with the
customization options available. For example, it is
possible to customize the ‘From’ email address, set
filters, choose your message preferences, and access an
extensive help system.
These instructions explain how to arrange for email
messages sent to your existing Internet Service Provider
(ISP) email accounts to be automatically forwarded to
your BlackBerry Internet Service account.
Tip If your service provider contract does not permit
more than one data connection, it will be necessary to
place the BlackBerry service on pause before connecting
to the Internet. To do this, tap
> Pause in the status
bar of your phone. The status bar icon flashes .
To add email accounts:
1. Tap
> Settings in the status bar of your phone.
2. Select
BlackBerry Internet from the menu. This
option will open the browser on your phone and
displays your service provider’s sign-in page. If the
BlackBerry Internet option is not available (grey),
you should open the phone’s browser and enter your
service provider’s Web address.
3. Enter your User ID and Password. Once you have
signed in to your account, you can modify your
basic settings and add extra Internet email (ISP)
accounts that are to be forwarded to your phone.

Accounts page opens.
5. Add your email account information into the

email account (not your BlackBerry Internet
Service account password).
