The POP connector is a kluge. I recommend you change this to direct SMTP
delivery of your mail - for reasons too numerous to enumerate here.  :)

Have a user with a new Blackberry.
They are getting the mail fine by pulling from the externally hosted
email.  But, the mail that is internal to the network and does not
route outside of SBS is not pulling into Blackberry.  Naturally,
since that email never gets to the externally hosted site, makes
sense.  But how do I get the internal emails to his blackberry?

The best way to use a Blackberry with Exchange is to also have Blackberry
Enterprise Server. This will wirelessly sync all mail, contacts, calendar,
tasks, notes, to the handheld. You get one license for it with a
blackberry device. I personally don't install this on SBS or any Exchange
server (a virtual server is fine) but many do.

If you can't swing that, then at least use BIS - Blackberry Internet
Service - meaning,. you'd configure the Blackberry to connect to your
Exchange server via a proxy for OWA (you do this on the wireless
provider's website if they support it).

If you can't do *that*, then set up an AD contact for the user's
Blackberry email address and configure a forward from his/her mailbox.
This isn't great but works.

Either of the above will get *all* the inbox mail to the BB. The latter
will not sync sent items & has other downaides as well.- Hide quoted text -

Installing BES on SBS is a BAAAAD idea.

I had 1 client, who thought he knew what he was doing, install BES on
a new SBS server and it TOTALLY blew up Exchange.,

I recall reading somewhere, perhaps in the manual for BES, that you
shouldn't install it on the same server as your exchange server, or
something similar to that. They may have fixed that though, as this
was done last year.

Anyways, I use the contact method for a couple of people ... Other
than that, I recommend getting rid of the blackberry and getting a
windows mobile phone and using direct push.

Thanks
