BlackBerry Curve 8300

What is OZMAIL on the Curve? Is this automatically generated?

Jul 9, 2007, 8:34 PM

I am new to the Blackberry world. My new curve works well, but I keep receiving e-mail messages, which I think are somehow automatically generated by Blackberry, Yahoo or AT&T. The top of the message says: "OZMAIL."

The "from" on the last message says:
3020:3708/3708.

These messages appear on the Curve, but are not present on my Yahoo Mail.

Is anyone else encountering this? Is there a way I can stop these messages from filling my inbox?

Thanks.

GSWPitt.

Did you already log-in to your BB account online verify the accounts and resend service books? Also pull the battery to do a complete reset. Sometimes one or more of my accounts will do strange things and this corrects it for me. Although I've never seen this.

I solved it.

If you have an e-mail account on your old phone, you need to pull the sim card from the new phone, restart the old phone, and then delete the e-mail account (Yahoo) from the old phone).

Then you put the sim card back in the new phone and boot up. AT&T says it can take 5 days but I am not seeing any more of these messages after 2 days.

Thanks
