About flags
You can add flags to email that you receive or send as a reminder to you or the recipients to follow up with the messages. You can use flags of different colors, add follow-up notes, and set due dates so that your BlackBerry® device reminds you to return to the email.
If wireless email reconciliation is turned on and your email account uses a BlackBerry® Enterprise Server that supports flags, changes that you make to flags on your device should be reflected in the email application on your computer. Likewise, changes that you make to flags in the email application on your computer should be reflected on your device.
If wireless email reconciliation is turned off, you can still manage flags for email on your device.
