I am having a problem here. I view my email via outlook through gmail. I recently got a blackberry phone and I was told that the only way the email would delete from my phone when I erase on my computer is to receive my email via imap instead of a POP. I have nothing but problems since I did this. My imap server keeps closing my connection on me to my email and I need to re start my computer to open the connection back up. I wish I could go back to a POP but I cant erase all of the email I get both on the phone and the computer. With the amount of email I get that would take forever. Does anyone have any advice?

Hello? Can anyone help? My imap server pops up with a message alot right when I am in the middle for the email and it says it closed my imap connection and one of the reasons could be I left the connection idle for too long. How can I fix this?

Can anyone help me with this?

Anyone?

I don't have a Blackberry, so I won't be of any help, but I can give you a site that can:
http://www.howardforums.com/
They have a section for Research in Motion (Blackberry)
Blackberry forum

as an 'anyone' I have just logged into MY gmail server and note that Blackberry can be configured either as a POP or an IMAP

log into your gmail on computer and go to the help centre and see from there?

Another site that is good for handhelds is Brighthand.com I am a current Palm Tx owner and have been a member there since I got my first palm 4 years ago.
