Re: Balckberry Redirector



You can also contact your corporate mobile carrier about obtaining a BES
license. You can usually get a discounted rate on the product if you have a
corp mobile provider and account manager.

One thing you should be aware of is the load BES puts on an exchange server.
Each blackberry enabled user is equivelant to 3 regular exchange users. Make
sure your hardware can scale to these levels when planning your blackberry
deployment. Outlook Mobile Access/Exchange Activesync is always recommended
in a pure Exchange environment as it does not require as much resources as
BES does therefore extending the longevity of your server.

Of course what John Oliver said is true, Blackberry users are very loyal to
their devices. In my experience however, if you persuade them to use a
Windows Mobile device for a month, they will learn to love it and the rest
will follow!

Thanks. Hoever, HE just told me that whne he hires his new staff, he will
want them to have blackberries as well, so it looks like BES server is in
my
very new future. Thankl you so much for responding to my questions.

not used personally.

I saw the message chain about using a Blackberry BES server. In it a
"Desktop Redirector" was mentioned. What is that and how do I get it?
I
just
have a new VP who has joined the company and need a way to get mail to
his
Blackberry. Any information would be wecome.
