Larry, One option for this is to create a group called OMA-Authorized-Users in Active Directory (or something like that). Then write a script that updates the "msExchOmaAdminWirelessEnable" attribute of all mailbox enabled user accounts based on membership in the OMA-Authorized-Users group in Active Directory. For example if a given mailbox enabled user is in the group then set the attribute to a value of 0, otherwise set the attribute to 7. Schedule the script to run periodically so that it disabled new mailboxes from having access and enables access for mailbox accounts you add to the OMA-Authorized-Users group.
This is a very short description and there are many more possibilities. This is a workable solution and ends up working like most other Windows type authorizations, by group membership. BTW, this method can be used to set "authorization levels" for any of the Exchange protocol.

This would eliminate the need to have our Help Desk go through over 1,000 user objects, and turn it off, not to mention having to remember to turn it off for every new user. We only have about 50-100 people at most who have email-capable mobile phones and want to read corporate email on them. Is there a way to do this? Or do we have to leave it on by default and turn it off on a per-user basis, as we are contemplating doing? Many thanks, colleagues. -- Larry Wahlers Concordia Technologies The Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod MailTo:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Business Phone: (314) 996-1876 _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Web Interface: http://intm-dl.sparklist.com/read/?forum=exchange To subscribe: http://e-newsletters.internet.com/discussionlists.html/ To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe via postal mail, please contact us at: Jupitermedia Corp.
