matt,

i think you're right when it comes to a blackberry integrated with 
blackberry enterprise server running on top of microsoft exchange or lotus 
notes. that's the "corporate email" option i think. when your blackberry 
isn't integrated with that, then i think it's pop3. at least to set up my 
personal emails, all i had to do to set that up was to input all the pop3 
info for the accounts.
