I am trying to figure out how to use my 7135 to access my work e-mail (so I don't have to switch to a Blackberry). My company does not have a server that will communicate directly with any of the 7135 software, so my IT people tell me the only way I could possibly get at e-mail is via the phone's web browser.

In order to sign into the company's webmail though, I have to fill in a username and password on a pop-up dialogue box. None of the web browsers that came with my 7135 (EIS, Eudora, OpenWave) seem to be able to allow the dialogue box to "pop up". Thus, I can never get past the security screen and see my e-mail.

Does anyone know of a 7135-friendly web browser that can handle a pop-up dialogue box? Or am I asking for something that just doesn't exist?

Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have a similar situation. If you have a personal e-mail account (I use fastmail), you can, using an Outlook rule, forward your work e-mail to your personal e-mail address (If you are creative with rules, you can specify which messages to forward, or just send them all). The 7135 can then pick up the messages (I recommend using SnapperMail with Docs to Go so you can read, modify and resend Word and Excel documents). There are two disadvantages to this, but neither is a fatal flaw for me. First, you will not be able to reply to messages without manually correcting the "To" address (SnapperMail's autofill makes this simple). Second, you will need to make some adjustments when you have direct access to your work account to reflect what you have done on the 7135. To make this easier, I bcc. work replies and messages created on my 7135 to the work address (creative use of folders, rules and a batch "mark as read" action takes care of the rest). I average more than 60 work messages a day and this setup works for me. I have tried using a browser on the 7135 with webmail to access my work account and it is much more cumbersome. YMMV.

Update: Although I never found a browser capable of navigating my company's OWA security, after reading many more posts here, I figured out a solution to my problem (i.e., I can now access my work email).

The solution I found was to download the "Mergic VPN" shareware to create a VPN with my company's existing server, then use a standard mail program to access email. (The IT people here had told me that no VPN software was available for smartphones, and I was excited to prove them wrong.)

Anyway, I hope this helps others with a similar problem.
