Well this is odd... after a little over 24 hours of functioning properly, my blackberry suddenly stopped sending e-mails on the first attempt again. Hitting "resend" would always work.

Yet again, logging into the blackberry web interface, deleting the account and recreating it fixed the problem.

What's up with that? Sending an e-mail results in "Invalid error from server". Immediately hitting resend sends it just fine. I've watched the Cyrus IMAP server logs and found something interesting...

When it stops working, on the first attempt cyrus shows "login: localhost" when I try to send a mail, then it fails.

When it works (and on a "resend") it shows "login: bda356c.bis.na.blackberry.com"

I'm stumped as to how "localhost" could even happen...

Just picked up a new Blackberry 8830 World Edition with GPS and unlimited data plan.

Very nice...

But the mapping software doesn't ever find the GPS satellites.

I just spent 20 minutes on hold with USCellular to be told "Sorry, but that's a known problem. We've already told RIM. It's not a problem with the device but a software problem. Hopefully they can fix it soon."

Talk about passing the buck and being noncommittal...
