I second Mark's comment.

As a BB user on a BWC (no BES) with email accounts with multiple providers. You can configure all of these to allow POP access (assuming they allow it) and your BB will "poll" them every 15 minutes. If you have high volume, the polling time will automatically shorten. There is a minimum of about 3 minutes or so for very high email volume users. However, why would you want to do this? You may as well just go with a smartphone and a regular GPRS account. You can control your polling then. One of the major attractions with a BB is the push data functionality; anything that arrives at your BB email addy will automatically show up on your handheld - no need to poll... It's like paying for a convertible, then fixing the top in place so it can't be opened...
