Your Blackberry Internet Service account (Web Client) can be integrated with up to ten Internet Service Provider (ISP) email accounts.

Account Integration Requirements
Verify that your email account provider complies with the following account integration requirements:
* If using a POP server, it must be configured to use Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) port 995 or port 110.
* If using an IMAP server, it must be configured to use TCP port 143 or port 993.
* If the POP or IMAP server is located behind a firewall or proxy, the TCP port used must be configured to allow bi-directional Internet traffic.
* If using a POP server, it must support unique identification listing (UIDL). Please perform an Internet search for Request for Comments document RFC1939.
