I hate to be one to go against the grain, but I thought this sounded a little strange.... so I logged into my Gmail account, and there it was, right under "forwarding" ....I set it up to auto-forward all inbound messages to my cingular blackberry address. ...works fine!
When I visit that URL it just saves a document file. I have been using gmail on my 7520 using the forwarding option in gmail, then it just forwards it to my blackberry email address.
no need anymore - just use the auto-forward feature.... and if you dont want your spam (i get very little anyway at gmail) just setup a filter and then forward it from there....
i've found it to be flawless and instant - and its great for archiving.... as soon as you fill up one gmail account (1 GB) just forward (with the delete filter) and bounce it off a newly created account.... your email addy stays the same, everything goes through your BB, and you have unlimited archive space for all your email (and a great way to search it)
Also keep in mind that the wap protocol is not secure, so your username/password could be sniffed on gateways, especially when using somebody elses hosted gmail-mobile gateway such as nodrm.com/gmail.
Can anybody help me? I bought a 7290 from ebay and entered my sim. Everything works perfectly, except the email service. Am I able to set up a gmail service or is this not possible? I am thankfull for every respond.
