3. Configure Blackberry. Configure the dedicated Blackberry address so that the “Reply to:” address is [email protected] and the “Auto BCC:” address is [email protected].

4. Configure Thunderbird. Configure Thunderbird to retrieve email from [email protected]; this will include incoming email sent to [email protected] as well as BCC email from the Blackberry. Configure Thunderbird so that the “Reply to:” address is [email protected] and the “Auto BCC:” address is [email protected]. Create a Thunderbird rule that is applied to all incoming email sent from [email protected] (which is BCC email from the Blackberry) that marks messages as “Read” and files them in the “Sent Items” folder.
Now we're getting somewhere! Thank you!

Now if only I could synch up my address book....

As for people who say "just get the data plan"... this is the only thing I would use the data plan for! Everything else I can hop onto local wi-fi networks and get done for free. So no, I'm not paying $25 +12% tax extra a month just to synch up my address book and email. Especially with the amount of spam I get I'll be over my data limit in no time!
