Default After 3 months, love B_B but 2 things annoy me still...

Please Login to Remove!

Hi all! Any solutioms to these two issues. Firstly when I want to check or delete sent emails, I need to go to message option, un hide sent messages. That is annoying as sms & mms have an outbox, but not emails. Why???
Secondly, the LED flashes red on new sms or email etc, but only for about 10 min then it goes back to flashing green. Also the LED flashes red on incoming call but why not stay red for a missed call?

Regards

Yusuf

I see having sent and received messages in the same folder as a plus.... I don't have to go to another folder if I want to review something I' have sent.

Do you really need to keep sent messages hidden? Why not go into options and change the setting?

Don't know about SMS & MMS (don't use it).

On the LED question, that's the way it is.

I have a good solution for your first issue, but not the second.

Set hide sent messages to Yes, so they do not show.

Read income messages as usual. When you want to see outgoing e-mails, press Alt then o, while you're in messages.

Alt then o should invoke a search for outgoing messages. This search is setup by default on all Blackberries, I think.

If Alt o does not work, that means the search is not setup. To set it up, go into messages then select search from the menu. Set up a search and assign it a shortcut key.

It's personal preference I suppose. For me I like to keep send messages away from the inbox. When you use ms outlook, sent emails go to outbox yes? So why not have that option also on Blackberry?

Thanks that worked a treat. But am wondering how to edit the shortcut assigned?
