With blackberry, few possibilies are available to check mails. Basicaly, either you pay for BIS to your mobile operator or you install Gmail. Since february, i migrated from Palm Treo 650 without Internet connexion to Blackberry 8520 with Internet. Aim was to check my mailboxes on my phone. I wanted to use a software without using Gmail client.
After few search on Internet, i found Tiggit, a full Java mail client. I used it to check 6 mailboxes on 3 different hosters. Positive points:
- Possibility to configure several mailboxes with IMAP or POP3,
- Possibility to store mail on Blackberry SD card,
- Possibility to save attached documents (not use)
- Link from contact to send mail,
- LED lighting and pics on home screen when new mail arrived,
- View HTML mail,
- Reactive support,
- Price affordable.
Negative points:
- Not all HTML mails can't be viewable,
- Image from mails not downloaded,
- Autonomy is 1.5 days with 600s checking mailboxes,
- Tiggit Configuration lost each time blackberry OS is upgraded.
Price: 19.95 USD Installed version: 1.1.19 Link: Tiggit
