Horrible blackberry outage 12/17

It's been down since about 2AM today. There are signs of recovery / flapping so it should be back up within the next few hours.
Regards

I noticed I didn't receive any emails after 2:00AM this morning as well, then a bunch came through around 11AM.
Hopefully they get things back under control soon.

Same here, things are still queued up and blasting out. So far mine has been fine since around 2:00-3:00PM CST.

Still out too.
"RIM says it's working on the outage, according to Bloomberg, although it hasn't identified the source of the problem yet."

What are you people doing with blackberrys? Get smartphones ffs.
Access your email from your servers. I don't think it's possible to have an outage unless the network is dead.

I was wondering why I woke up with only two e-mails on a weekday with a normal average of 15-20 waiting for me. Messages arrived around 10:30 AM CST.

Yea seriously you would think that blackberry would want to proxy less email than they do. It makes sense for enterprise users but for why for basic IMAP boxes? Pretty lame in my opinion.

You seriously have the worst attitude against every subject.

For those of you that haven't gotten their blackberry service up and running. You might need to call your carrier (no BB) to have them re-activate the emails you have registered. I did that a little while ago and emails are coming in real time now.
Best

It only required a reboot.

No time for small fry like you. I'll be busy partying with the big companies, whom have been trying to hire me for years.

I've been taking the battery out almost every hour this afternoon hoping it would register with the network but that didn't help.

Arghhh, still down.... I called tech support and I was on hold for 30 minutes and just hung up.

Just reactivate the email accounts yourself. That should do it.
