Specific BlackBerry e-mail question...
Hi all, Happy New Year.
I am in the process of doing some smart phone research before I make the plunge into the world of BlackBerries and Treos, and I've got a question:

Yes, you can certainly setup filters through the web client or your wireless sync settings. You also have the ability to set certain messages to arrive as "level 1" which means you will be notified differently from your normal notification. Normal notification can be a tone (there are many to chose from), vibrate, or simply a flashing red light. The good thing about the BB is it has lots of options, so I am sure you can customize it to meet your needs. Hope this helps.
