[Dovecot] Blackberries

[interfaSys sàrl]

To check if you're in polling mode, do a "doveadm who" and if you don't
see a BIS server connected to your account, then you don't get instant
emails anymore.

I haven't figured out if the reason it can't switch back is because of
something on the Dovecot side or simply because BIS doesn't have a way
to switch back.
The reason being that, sometimes, a few accounts manage to connect again.
I've tried to repair mailboxes, index, etc. Nothing worked.

On the RIM side, there doesn't seem anybody we can talk to. People on
public forums don't have a clue. Their beta program is for apps. It
costs money to open a support ticket.

The only solution is to delete the account on the phone and to re-create
it. Annoying.
