Sending and receiving email on the device simulator
I want to send and receive emails on the device simulator and have them go via a real BES rather than the Email Service Simulator. Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so how to configure it?

Email Server Simulator
Check out this information below from RIM documentation.
I can get email to go FROM my BB to my Outlook on my PC, but cannot seem to get emails going from Outlook to my BB Simulator using the localhost as smtp. Any ideas? Using the Email Server Simulator The BlackBerry JDE includes an Email Server Simulator that enables you to send and receive email between the device simulator and either a desktop email application, such as Microsoft Outlook, or POP3 and SMTP servers. A BlackBerry Enterprise Server is not required. Start the Email Server Simulator On the Start menu, click Programs > Research In Motion > BlackBerry Java Development Environment 4.0 > Email Server Simulator. Select one of the following modes: Mode Description Standalone mode The ESS stores messages on the local file system and communicates directly with a desktop email application. No POP3 or SMTP server is required./The ESS can communicate with any desktop email application that supports POP3 and SMTP, such as Microsoft Outlook Express. The desktop email account must have the POP3 server set to localhost on port 110 and the SMTP server set to localhost on port 25. Connected mode The ESS polls the user POP3 email server for incoming messages, and uses the user SMTP server to send messages. Valid POP3 and SMTP servers are required. If you select the Standalone mode option, click Clean FS to erase ESS messages that are stored on the local file system. If you select the Connected mode option, complete the following fields: Field Description Outgoing The host name of the SMTP server that your email account uses Incoming The host name of the POP3 server that your email account uses User name The user name with which to connect to your email account Password The password with which to connect to your email account Poll inbox How often, in seconds, the simulator checks your email inbox for new messages Complete the following fields: Field Description Name The name to display in outgoing messages from the device simulator The email address to display in outgoing messages from the device simulator PIN The personal information number (PIN) that is used by the device simulator (by default, the PIN is 0x2100000A) Send an email using the device simulator Start the Email Server Simulator.
