[outages] RIM issue

Our regional wireless provider has notified us of a RIM issue: RIM has notified us of an outage that is affecting both the carrier provided email (@BlackBerry.com) and 3rd party integrated emails (Gmail, MSN, <redacted>, etc). Subscribers may be unable to set up their @BlackBerry email account, activate email services and or add (integrate) 3rd party email accounts. This may also affect the 3rd party email accounts ability to send/receive messages. Anyone else hearing the same? Frank
