Is there a way to get email notifications to my phone as a text message letting me know there are new messages waiting for me in my Shaw email account?

Might get a bit expensive but you can set your email program to forward a copy of all your incoming emails to your fido phone number: areacode+number@fido.ca If the mail is longer than the 150/160 character SMS limit, it just gets cut off. >>Is there a way to get email notifications to my phone as a text message >>letting me know there are new messages waiting for me in my Shaw email [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] >If the mail is longer than the 150/160 >character SMS limit, it just gets cut off. You could also get shaw to forward the email so you don't have to leave your email program running. I believe it's an option under manage.shaw.ca >>>Is there a way to get email notifications to my phone as a text message >>>letting me know there are new messages waiting for me in my Shaw email [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >leave your email program running. >I believe it's an option under manage.shaw.ca Now, can anyone tell me if there's a way to download the whole email over the phone (either on the phone itself or to a pda). Shaw doesn't seem to allow remote access to their pop3 server. > Now, can anyone tell me if there's a way to download the whole email > over the phone (either on the phone itself or to a pda). Shaw doesn't > seem to allow remote access to their pop3 server. Nope. No pop3 server, many are looking for a solution, there may be a solution, but you'll have to pay: http://www.experts-exchange.com/Networking/Email_Groupware/Q_20752998.html What I have done is find a pop3 enabled service (eg. yahoo email address) and forward the shawmail to this address AND then check from the device (terminal device of whatever kind that supports pop3 setup). Cumbersome, but it works :) obs@geocities.com (obs) wrote in alt.cellular.fido: > Might get a bit expensive but you can set your > email program to forward a copy of all your > incoming emails to your fido phone number: > areacode+number@fido.ca I'm trying to avoid the expense. Thanks for the info.
