Redirecting IMAP emails to inbox

jmoon · 09-05-2007, 07:20 AM

I have added a IMAP folder connecting to our local NBX phone system so I will get voicemail messages in Outlook. This works just fine but I need to have it show up in my blackberry device. Is there a way to have the messages routed to my regular inbox instead of going to the "My Phone" inbox that was created during the setup of the IMAP email account? That way I would be able to see if I have received a message via the inbox of my Blackberry.
Thanks,

I figured out how to do it. If you want to have your Blackberry display a message when you get a voicemail on your work desk telephone. Obviously have the Outlook client set up to receive the IMAP data from the NBX.
Then set up a rule on the IMAP inbox that is set to forward the incoming email to yourself so it will go through the exchange server and be delivered to your mail inbox. That way it will also be delivered to the Blackberry. If you need better details let me know.
