Interestingly, yesterday morning my email stopped too. A simple recycle on the power got it going again.

Sprint, the reason I posted that here was I knew that as varied as our readership is I would shortly get an answer whether or not this was widespread. I got exactly that within a few minutes of posting it and then began my troubleshooting which proved successful. I then immediately updated the post to reflect that. Sorry you took offense.

You gotta be kidding me indeed. If you couldn’t get access to a blackberry server, then maybe; but you couldn’t get access to a POP3 email server, and don’t outline any troubleshooting you may or may not have tried, or researching the web for identical issues, or contacting technical support, but instead make a personal blog post pointing at the service provider telling the internet of a possible service outage? Have you considered it may be more practical to actually call and notify Blackberry to see if they have a service issue rather than scream fire in a crowded theater? Perhaps they could have assisted you in narrowing down the problem, before you even made a post about it. Or maybe you’re just kidding us all.

It’s not a service-wide issue, that’s for sure. I’d call your provider, since *my* BB is just as irritating as ever today.
