Procedure for Vodamail

[Dolby]

My BIS was activated this morning and I'm having an issue with my Vodamail.

Earlier I managed to get it to send - but not receive on the device. I kept getting a message to update password - but it would never accept. I validated (successfully) but then it kept saying invalid

I've now DELETED everything to do with mail and starting afresh _ but the problem is now it won't accept username/password.

Do I enter my alias (dolby@voda) or number (082@voda) - does it make a difference? My password is the same I use to get my www.vodamail.co.za

When you add your vodamail address the first time on your blackberry, it should give you an error saying that it could not find the settings or similar to that effect. You then have to select to enter the details in yourself, and that's how you get to the username textbox so you can enter your username. Because your username will be something like 27xxxxxxxxx and the blackberry can't guess it by itself from just the email address.

Edit: yes you can use your alias instead of the 082xxx@vodamail

The most important thing is putting your username (27xxxxxxxxx) in the username textbox.
