BlackBerry 8700
email / spam
I've never owned a blackberry so I have a question about spam on this device. How does this phone handle spam.... or doesn't it? Like many of us, I get a ton of spam and would find it extremely painful to have to delete all the same spam twice. Once on the device and the other on my work computer when I return to the office. And when deleting unwanted mail is it fairly easy to delete items in large quantities versus going one by one?
I also have a question regarding backing up my contacts. Is there any way to back up data on a mac?

It depends on the e-mail settings of the e-mail address that is being forwarded to your blackberry. As for the blackberry e-mail address itself you can log on to your blackberry account from any computer and set your filters to avoid spam.

The BlackBerry itself doesn't handle spam. That's up to the email server and account you are getting your mail from.
Most ISPs and hosting companies are including spam filtering on your email account. Log into your account online and set up spam filtering there.
That's the only way it will really work. Using the BlackBerry account filters is much more time consuming and you'll constantly be adding more and more filters to handle the spam.
