Blackberry & messages missing from the server

[achen.code]

<cketti> how does a blackberry visualize messages that have been kept
on the device but have been deleted on the server?

For BIS and out-of-sync BES messages, BlackBerry will display whatever
it has cached locally (always the headers at the very least, and some
part of the body if it was previously downloaded). It'll display a
red X to the left of the message in their equivalent of the
MessageList, indicating that download failed. Since message
generation is done on the service side, you can't forward or reply to
the message. You can copy-paste whatever text you have locally and
paste it into a new message, though.
