Re: [Bes-admins] Droid X
The factory support for exchange is getting better on Android phones (as has been the case with the iPhone as well). HTC devices that run sense have better exchange functionality. Some of the things that are missing from the stock Exchange-Android support is the abbility to add a signature to your emails or accept a meeting invite from the email. HTC sense addresses these issues, but it should also be noted that Android 2.2 (Froyo) is also addressing these issues. - Chris On Thu, Jul 22, 2010 at 12:11 PM, Ceron, Carlos cce...@utsystem.edu wrote: Curious, has anyone looked into not using the default built-in email client on Android devices. Personally I've never liked it, it's buggy, inconsistent and pretty much crap. I've seen new versions floating around but seems device vendors are either replacing it or fixing it up themselves. I gave up the BB for Android and I use Touchdown for my Exchange messages. It does support exchange security policies and the app itself does a pretty good job of syncing and giving a lot of functionality. The app also has a remote kill command. Basically on the device you come up with a kill code, should your device go missing, send yourself an email with TDKill and your kill code in the subject and the app clears itself so that's always an option. We are also running Exchange 2007, there is a built in tool to manage mobile devices and do remote wipes. Just a thought.

Of course, when they drove the BB decision, they had no idea about the task of deploying BES, they just think a phone is a phone from an IT perspective. In the two years since I have deployed BES and taught myself how to use it, I think it is one of the best decisions they made for me. No more running to desks to fix one phone at a time.

Re: [Bes-admins] iPhones overheating while connecting to an Exchange server
Can you change the sync interval on the iPhone from as mail arrives to some interval to see if that will solve the problem? This will at least tell you if the issue is the realtime push.

Re: [Bes-admins] Block Personal Email
I found to fully block BIS accounts you have to configure service exclusivity as well as configuring the firewall policy to block incoming BIS messages. I learned this after discovering that some users were still able to get BIS accounts to function even with only Service Exclusivity configure. - Chris On Tue, Nov 17, 2009 at 1:54 PM, Jonathan Barker jonathanbar...@quinnemanuel.com wrote: Give your service provider a call and have them disable that service for your mobile #’s?

Re: [Bes-admins] BES communications to Blackberry via Sprint/Nextel
We pay the extra money for our sprint blackberries. On ATT we pay $15 extra for a BES data plan. I would talk to your Sprint rep to see if they can help you out.

Re: [Bes-admins] Hi, does anyone knows of any ATT BB connectivity issues in the Atlanta area?
No current issues have been reported by our users, and email/data is moving to and from my device without any problems. I'm in Philadelphia, PA. - Chris On Thu, Jun 11, 2009 at 9:27 AM, Silver, Diana dsil...@mariettaga.govwrote: Hi all, I have received some complaints about no BB emails coming through - anyone else have any issues?

Re: [Bes-admins] Documents to Go
The standard edition that comes pre installed on some BBs is strictly a reader (unless you upgrade). - Chris On Mon, Jun 1, 2009 at 3:57 PM, Eggan, Mark meg...@co.napa.ca.us wrote: Is this the Premium version of DTG?

Re: [Bes-admins] Blackberry Enterprise Server monitoring
If you just want to monitor the hardware, then you probably don't need to worry about the Blackberry services running on top. Most commercial monitoring solutions I have run across have provisions for Windows 2003 server built in. That means you configure the SNMP service on your BES (with the proper community names) and point your netMon server to the BES and tell the netMon that it is a 2003 server. After that you should have basic CPU, Memory, and hard drive monitoring. - Chris On Tue, May 5, 2009 at 3:46 PM, Moller, Doreen doreen.mol...@spcorp.comwrote: the Blackberry MIB ___ Bes-Admins mailing list Bes-Admins@dataoutages.com http://www.dataoutages.com/mailman/listinfo/bes-admins http://www.dataoutages.com RSS Feed: http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bes-admins - Bes-Admins mailing list is Sponsored by Port3101.org : Your BES Connection. http://www.dataoutages.com/3101
Re: [Bes-admins] New users activate immediatly
I should note that new users activate immediately, not immediatly. - Chris On Fri, Apr 24, 2009 at 8:35 AM, Chris Burwell cburw...@gmail.com wrote: I have the alerts on our BES (4.1.6.10) to send me an email whenever a user is added, deleted, or activated. This morning I am preparing to migrate a user from a Blackjack to a Blackberry. I added the person to the BES and a minute later received another notification stating that the user had been activated! After checking the server, the status for this user is Running, there is a PIN, and the last contact date is some time in 2007. This same situation has happened on a few users that I have migrated. It seems that if I remove the user, then add them again the same scenario will not occur again. The company I work for had Nextel Blackberries several years back, but I wouldn't think that after 2-3 years that information would still be present on the blackberry network (let alone automatically activate a device).
