RE: Blackberry calendar integration
Not easily...CF/COM and Exchange integration was flakey at the best of times - probably even flakier with MX.

RE: Blackberry calendar integration
I believe the proper way to do this is to have the CF server CFMAIL the meeting request as an attachment, but check that Evolution thread for the issues. This is exactly what we do. We have created a calendar app that allows you to choose the staff to invite from a list when creating an event. It then emails those people. In addition to having the event details in the body of the email they get an attached .vcs file. They open it and save it to their Exchange calendar. If you are running Blackberry Enterprise Server it will sync. If you are running desktop redirect it should sync just like any other change. The only problem we've encountered is when someone is away and their Blackberry is their only access then they have to manually add it to their calendar based on the information in the email text. I have not tried accessing one of these messages with Outlook Web Access. Perhaps I should go test that... Let me know if you'd like more details or code.

RE: Blackberry calendar integration
So is there a way to make it work directly with blackberry, without requiring the use of outlook? No, not that I know of. We generate an email. If the user is using Outlook they can open the attached vCal file and it will automatically add it to their calendar when the choose save and close. If they are using their Blackberry they just get an email with an attachment. We put the details of the event in the body of the email. They can, from that information, just create a new calendar event on their Blackberry manually. It's not pretty, but it works for us. BTW, I tested the Outlook Web Access. It doesn't work there. You still have to open the attachment in Outlook to automatically add it to your calendar. Bob ~| Logware (www.logware.us): a new and convenient web-based time tracking application.
