I have been a Mac user for way too long, so don't start flaming me for my devotion. Now for the question. I am on the VZW network, and have been using the Blackberry Web Client for my email handling. Safari does not work with the site, never has, so I need to use Internet Explorer. Microsoft has suspended all support and will not be doing any more IE upgrades for the Mac. The new Mac's Office bundle doesn't even include IE anymore. Any other options? I did see the new 4.1 upgrade includes a new email settings icon, but it does not provide full access.

Have you not asked this before? Migrate to FireFox, I find it works much better with site (never been a fan of Safari) and I find the BWC seem to work well with FireFox. You will have a couple glitches but it works.

BWC works fine for me in Safari ever since Tiger.

Ditto, FireFox and Safari both work fine here.

I find the 'delete messages' function does not work as expected.

You are correct. I am unable to delete the messages properly as well. I forgot about that functionality since I delete and reconcile via the BB, I do not use that area of the site.

For those that do not know TMobile has stopped using the BWC/BIS (and other carriers are likely to do the same), which allows non BES users to set up everything via the BB instead of the BWC/BIS. Therefore the site will probably be a thing of the past.

Thanks for the follow ups. I should have made it clear that the delete function was the main issue, so I see I ma not alone.
