From a crackberry forum post at

T-Mobile has several kinds of email systems. The email system used depends
on what kind of phone you have. The strange messages you are receiving
means you have email setup on one specific T-Mobile email system known to
T-Mobile reps as "consumer email", but your sim card is no longer in a
phone that supports "consumer email".

The quickest way to resolve this is to put your sim card back into your
old phone. Remove your email account from the old phone. Once your email
account is removed, the consumer email system will stop sending those
messages to you. You can put your sim card back into your new phone.

If you no longer have access to the phone with consumer email (Samsung
Blast, Motorola W490, Nokia 6263, Samsung Behold, and several others),
please contact us. A T-Mobile representative can remove your consumer
email account directly from the network.
