Tip 6 – Confirm that the BlackBerry smartphone can receive email messages

To confirm that the BlackBerry smartphone can receive email messages, send a test email message using an external email client or web interface, such as Microsoft® Outlook®, IBM® Lotus Notes®, or Windows Live™ Hotmail®.

Send a test email message to the email address for the account that is associated with the BlackBerry smartphone. If the email message is successfully received by the BlackBerry smartphone, you will see a new email message in the BlackBerry smartphone message list. This indicates that the messaging and collaboration server* is able to process incoming email messages and forward them to your BlackBerry smartphone.

*Depending on the environment and BlackBerry services you are using on your BlackBerry smartphone, the messaging and collaboration servers may be different. For example

  • Work environment: Your BlackBerry smartphone might be integrated with Microsoft® Exchange (messaging server) and a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server (collaboration server).
  • Prosumer environment: Your BlackBerry smartphone might be integrated with Windows Live Hotmail (messaging server) and a BlackBerry® Internet Service account (collaboration server).

Tip 7 – Confirm that the BlackBerry smartphone can send email messages

To confirm that the BlackBerry smartphone can send email messages and PIN messages, send an email message from the BlackBerry smartphone back to the BlackBerry smartphone, and a PIN message from the BlackBerry smartphone back to the BlackBerry smartphone. For instructions, see KB02913.

A PIN message that is sent successfully from the BlackBerry smartphone to the BlackBerry smartphone should show the sent PIN message in the BlackBerry smartphone message list with a check mark and a D beside it and the received PIN message in the BlackBerry smartphone message list with a check mark and a D beside it. A D indicates that the PIN message was delivered to the specified PIN number.

An email message that is sent successfully from the BlackBerry smartphone back to your BlackBerry smartphone, should be received in your email application such as Microsoft Outlook, IBM Lotus Notes, or Windows Live Hotmail. The collaboration server will then attempt to send the new email message to your Blackberry smartphone. The received email message should appear in the BlackBerry smartphone message list.


Tip 8 – Check for service books

A service book contains information that configures how your BlackBerry smartphone interacts with the BlackBerry® Infrastructure. Service books turn on specific services for your BlackBerry smartphone. The types of service books that are on your BlackBerry smartphone depends on the features provided by your wireless service provider along with the types of email accounts integrated with your BlackBerry smartphone. When sending email messages from the BlackBerry smartphone, you must have a service book responsible for the integrated email address type that you are using to attempt to send email messages with.

To see what service books are present on the BlackBerry smartphone, click the Options icon, then click Advanced Options, and select Service Book. For more information about service books, see KB03151

For instructions on sending service books, see KB02830.
