I just got the Blackberry Pearl, and I can't figure out how to best set up the email alerts. I can see that a light flashes when I have an email, but does anyone know

1. if there's a function where you get a noise alarm when a message comes in? If so, how to set it up?

2. Can you set an email alert for certain contacts only? Like your BPO ompanies only? If so, how?

3. Does it automatically scan for messages every minute or so or do I have to adjust the time scan?


Thanks guys!

I believe the Blackberry Pearl is just like every other Blackberry in that it uses the BB service to simply push the email to the device, so you have to set your Blackberry account to check other accounts periodically to push the content. The manual to your device should explain everything.
