is there some way or app that will only dload email for people in my address book? i get a lot of junk mail on orange, and unless i go in regular like and clear it down, i end up dloading all this shite mail when i want to get a real email
ta
no spam with my mail please?
Funny you should say that. I also have an Orange email account and get a whole load of crap sent to it. I have thus abandoned Orange as the volume of junk is unmanagable. Orange is *extremely* unreliable anyhow.
As to the question, no there isn't a way to filter with the native s/w. Not sure about 3rd party s/w though.
(Fingers crossed for the P910?)

what account do you use instead. i had a right hassle trying to use a mixture of providers before. was it easy to alter the account setup on your phone?

I use a Boltblue account instead. The problem with that is BoltBlue will not let me use their SMTP server so I can't send any emails. But I can use their POP3 server so I can recieve emails.
Solution?
I set up an account on my P900 that uses Boltblue's POP3 service and Orange's SMTP service! Now I can send and recieve using my Boltblue account.

Bateman:
still gett loads of crap from my orange account 😞
is it easy to get the login details for a boltblue account?
is it free?
and if so, would you be able to give me the boltblue details? not your accounts bits obviously 😉
do you use it over gprs?

You should just be able to go and register at http://www.boltblue.com/ and click on "register now >>". That will give you your email address.
the pop3 server is pop.boltblue.com along with whatever username/password you set up.
Once you have a new BB account, use the POP3 server in your email client/P900 and use Orange's smtp server along with your Orange username/password and you're away.
You should also check with your ISP as they might have an SMPT server you can use. I just discovered that my ISP does (even though I don't have an email account with them)
Yes I use it over GPRS.
Bateman
I should also mention that although it is free to register, I was migrated from a previous ISP and so that may or may not make a difference to the pop3 access you will/will not have.
I know that BB seem to have different types of service - i.e. Lite/Premium etc.

thanks v much Bateman
i shall give it a try
cool, that was very easy. thanks Bateman.
btw, is it possible to get text alerts from new mails?
ta
and, is it possible to setup your account on the p900 to not leave a copy on the server? ive seen this somewhere, but it might have been on my last phone :con?
