hey random question about emails on the BB's but since I'll be linking my personal yahoo account to the phone I'm wondering that since I get a good amount of spam email that goes directly to the spam folder in yahoo. will all of these come into the phone as new mail in the inbox, or will it store it in the spam folder as well?

 

If you set up your mail as an imap account then your folders should be appropriately managed.

However, if you use a system like this you will not benefit from BB's push email which is one of it's real bonuses.

What I do is forward my email from my mail server to a BB email address. This means that it's pushed to my phone immediately.

I don't run a spam filter on my day-to-day account. I simply cannot afford to miss an email. What I do with my BB is forward my primary account to gmail, then forward it again from gmail to my BB email address. This way I get pushed email and use Gmail's unbeatable email filters.

I can manage spam mail at home with no problem. I sure don't want it on my phone.

 

so if i sync up my yahoo account to the phone and be able to use the push technology, would just the inbox show up, not the spam folder? if i can't sync up my yahoo acct to the phone it's not the biggest deal but it would be nice

 

You can sync the yahoo imap account that should manage your folders appropriately. I do not believe that the yahoo accounts will push the mail to your phone though. I think the phone will check your email once every 15 minutes.

 

I guess I'll just try it out then

thanks!

 

great phone so far!! just having fun getting all the email and everything set up

 

BB for the win hehe.

 

by the way my yahoo email is only showing the inbox mail and my spam folder doesn't even show up

 

I'm picking up my 8830 World Edition sometime this month too!

Unlimited web surfing and built in GPS navigation FTW!

 

I thought I'd take a shot in here to get some opinions on Bluetooth headsets as well. I'm looking at the Jawbone, that I can find under retail on ebay and possibly the Jabra 250v, but I don't know if I want somethign that big on my ear

Just wanted to see if you guys had any other opinions on decent priced (under $50) headsets.
