Comcast Email

[leeford54]

I have a Bold 9650 and everything works pretty well. The problem is with Comcast as its not true push so I get my emails up to 15 minutes later. I heard the best solution is to set up the BB.net email and forward to that address. Supoose to be instant and by leaving a copy on server it will also show up on my PC.

So the question...does this work? If I do this can I set the reply from address to comcast email?

Hi,

I have my Comcast email account on my Bold.  It usually takes about 10 minutes to appear, sometimes a little longer.  I do know that the Blackberry email account is very fast, usually less than a minute.  Also, my Hotmail account is just as fast as the Blackberry account.  You can try to set it up as a forward and see if it makes it faster.  I have not tried that.  Let us know here.

OK I tried this set up and it works great. Comcast email arrives almost immediately and by leaving a copy on server you can also get it on your Outlook. Heres a few pointers

Set up your VZW BB email

Make sure you edit it and put your comcast email in the reply to field (when you reply looks like it came from comcast email)

Go to comcast and set up auto forwarding to VZW BB email

Make sure to check leave a local copy

Go in to Outlook Account settings and uncheck leave a copy on server or mailbox will become full
