Do you allow non-university phones to sync with your email? *Yes* What security do you enforce on the phone if any; pins, encryption, …? *Phone Lock/Password Strongly Urged* Do you allow all types of Smartphone’s or do you limit support to Blackberries or Windows mobile, or …? *Mainstream support available for iPhone, Windows Mobile, and BlackBerry. Best-effort / time-as-available support for any other devices.* *Details at http://www.lehigh.edu/act/pda* If you support Blackberries do you run a BES server? Any opinions on the BES server would be appreciated. *We don't run BES as we are not an Exhange, Domino, or GroupWise shop. It was our understanding that BES requires one of the aforementioned systems. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. *Steve Lewis Lehigh University On 12/16/2009 12:57 PM, Kellogg, Brian D. wrote:
