Mail forwarding was BlackBerry Request

Be careful with mail forwarding.  We had a user that used a rule to copy 
all email to their yahoo account.  Worked "ok" until someone sent out a 
huge video attachment to everyone.  Yahoo wouldn't accept such a large 
attachment and would forward the message back, which counted as a new mail 
in, and tried to go out to their yahoo account...see the never ending loop 
yet?
Their email file grew 20Gb/day until it, and the mail.box, was all hosed 
up.  Restored the users mail file from a backup and renamed mail.box to 
oldmail.box.  Bouncing the server automatically created a new mail.box.  I 
pasted into the mail.box only what I wanted from the oldmail.box.
Don't know how it stopped the vicious cycle.  Did Yahoo get upset and 
figure it out?  Was it when we bounced the server as part of our nightly 
backup?

Re: BlackBerry Request






Is POP3 port open? When you get a Blackberry you also get access to a 
Blackberry Web Account. You can have this check for mail at your pop 
account and send to the BB. Alternatively, like you said, you can have 
mail forwarding set up, but that can be a pain.

As far as iNotes - yeah right! It's barely working with Non-IE browsers, 
much less the BB browser.

Check out also http://mail-e-on-air.com (I think). They have a notes db 
that links to the user's mail file. It works really well.
