Does it use OAuth or something similar? Ie, you grant access to the application rather than give it your password. </guess>

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_email

Your mail server is pushing the email on to your blackberry, your blackberry doesn't connect to the mail server so the password doesn't matter (at least thats what i think is happening)
