Guest Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 I very much doubt it, unless your force supports them. I'll move this to "Help Me"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryW 160 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Does your force email support IMAP/POP3 access from outside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixxer 36 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 You either need the IMAP / POP3 settings if it's deliveried this way, or the Exchange server details if it's delivered via an exchange server. I know I can't access my works email via my BB as the exchange server can only be accessed by a device within the internal network to send / retrieve emails.

GaryW 160 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 the exchange server can only be accessed by a device within the internal network to send / retrieve emails. Which makes sense and is a very simple security option on the server (and/or firewall) where you limit the access to interal IP address ranges only. Even if you don't do that then it's possible to remove IMAP/POP3 from the server and just allow MAPI via Outlook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TallGuy1546081014 + 557 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Does anybody know if it is possible to link your police email account to a Blackberry 8900? Yes if it is a force issued BB and the linking is done by the force IS Dept. Otherwise no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrative Account 7 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 My force don't allow it although it would technically possible it is a security issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
