[stevetaz]

RIM has worked with a number of the "branded" webmail services and that gives near-push results when receiving. There were a few that required premium accounts if you wanted to connect vis BIS and Hotmail was the most well known with that limitation, but it is no longer an issue.

RIM has a published list of various providers and this is a link if you are interested.

For the lazier in the audience, here is a reprint of the article, KB17094:

Damn, I use SurfSpeedy for my personal email. Which probably explains why my messages take a minute or two for receiving. Who do I need to stalk in order to get faster messaging with my web host?
