I've managed to get the e-mail adress added to my Bold (using my computer browser), I managed this yesterday. The tip of not deleting www was the trick, that worked after several tries on the proper server. The account showed up on my Bold, and when resending the servicebooks i get those in aswell (for this account).

However: it just doesn't send/receive e-mails (for this account, the other 3 do work!). I'ts the correct e-mail account, the correct password and as far as i can tell the correct server. Something is just off, i can't figure out what??

I checked this, my default browser is Internet Browser, which seems to be my blackberry browser (other options are "Vodafone WAP", "services" and "Hotspotbrowser").

Is it possible that the server is somehow protected and that I need a password for that? Or could it be that my school had a horrible experience involving a blackberry when it was young and that it just hates them all now?
