Re: Blackberry Hack For Exchange

Yeah.

With exchange, BB's are a good device with BES, but without that, they're really little much more than a one_step_removed email client and a decoration for insecure folks who want to be seen as being included in a certain crowd/group.

Exchange is so much more than email; contacts, tasks, calendar, notes, etc; and without BES a BB syncs none of that over the air; WM does it all OOB.

Thanx for the response. Yes, the link I posted mentioned how to setup
rules to put emails sent from your Blackberry into the Sent Items
folder of Outlook. And item 7 on the following link talks about
setting up Blackberry with OWA;
https://support.t-mobile.com/knowbase/root/public/tm22698.htm . I am
not sure which will be more appropriate or how either of them would
work (but it seems the OWA setup will auto-login since you have to
enter/save the OWA credentials on the Blackberry) since I am yet to
implement any.

Thanx.

I don't recommend this. It doesn't sync anything other than mail, and you're handing your domain credentials over to a third party.

Hello All,

I read somewhere on this Technet newsgroup (can;t seem to re-locate
the post) that one can setup Blackberries to connect to Exchange
Server without
BES and get email, perhaps via the same ports as a Pocket PC. Can
someone please provide some details on accomplishing this?

I don't know about others, but we have rules set up to forward
incoming email to our blackberry users blackberry-email accounts. So
they receive incoming emails. Their outgoing is configured to give
their work email address as their reply to, so outgoing appear to
come from their company email addresses. With this arrangement what
we don't get is a copy of any outgoing emails, although I think some
users have rules to email this to themselves.

I think I read somewhere that Blackberries can be set to use OWA.
This may be what you want, but I've not investigated.
