Default gmail forwarding & delivery receipts

Please Login to Remove!

I know this has been discussed, but I am unable to resolve the issue. So here is the situation . . .

I have a work email address (we manage our own email system internally). Emails sent to my work address get forwarded to my gmail account (so I can view them when I'm not at work).

I recently got a Pearl 8130 (Bell Mobility Canada) and set it up to pull messages from my gmail account.

When someone sends an email to my work address, they get a delivery confirmation (if they have confirmations turn on) from my *gmail* address. I don't want this to happen!

My understanding of this is that when an email is sent to my work address and then gets forwarded to my gmail and then onto my BB, it is the BB server that is processing the delivery confirmation (gmail ignores them) and then the BB server sends off the delivery confirmation but it looks to the original sender like the confirmation came from my gmail account.

This is not only a nuisance, but also a privacy issue (I don't want my gmail address revealed to those who send emails to my work address).

I have gone into my BB email settings and all receipts/confirmations are turned off.

While I have BIS, Bell Mobility no longer offers the web-based access to configure email accounts; only whatever I can do directly on my phone.

The only solution that I have ever read about is to set up a filter in BIS that catches these delivery receipts from going out. But I cannot find a way to do this on my Pearl.

Any suggestions here would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks.
