Hey guys. I have been roaming around the site for almost 4 yrs and finally decided to register and actually post something, so go easy on the new guy. My problem is this: I just upgraded my curve to the new firmware and resent service books but my emails still aren't in html. Any ideas? Thanks!

while you are in your email folder. click the blackberry button, then go to options, then go to email settings, then make sure html is checked.

Thats what I had to do. Also, you may have to send your service books more than once, and make sure you do a battery pull and do a complete restart as well.
