I would like to get my personal POP3 email in real time on my Nextel Blackberry 7100. Currenly my POP3 email gets checked every 15 mins. According to Nextel you can't change that. Now I know you can use Blackberry's Desktop Redirector Software which will download my mail and redirect it in real time. Currently I don't use Outlook to receive my personal emails and don't want to configure it for this situtation. I check my emails via my webmail address using my internet explorer.

I was told if I could forward all my emails to my Blackberry address which would then get to my Blackberry device in real time.


Is there a third party software that can pull my email from my personal POP3 email and push it out my nextel.blackberry email address?

The redirector would still rely on the account settings. If that's POP3, then it still wouldn't be real time.

POP3 isn't designed to be real time.

According to Blackberry they are coming out with BIS 2.0. This is Blackberry Internet Service 2.0 connector. This will push pop3 email to your blackberry device in real time. You don't need to rely on any BES server. From what I heard it out only for T-Mobile units. So since my Blackberry is a Nextel unit, I will wait patiently.
