OK, company uses BES, but only allows users who have a work issued BB to access it. I have a curve that I would like to pull my work email through personal email. We use exchange and have outlook web access, so i would like to would be able to synch. BUT in order to access webmail i have to enter my token and RSA code (stupid security policy)

ANY suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks so much in advance

Welcome to the BBForums.

Justin, to do that which your BES expressly forbids would be wrong, aside from stupidly putting your job in question. They have the policy there for a reason. I don't think you will find much help here to break policies. This just isn't that kind of place.

Good luck.

I have to agree with JSanders on this one. If in some way you were able to pull this off, you would most likely put yourself in jeopardy. I think your best bet would be to talk to your BES admin and see if he has any suggestions for you. It never hurts to ask.

Thanks guys... just after 5 years of having a BB i'm experiencing a bit of withdrawal,

Other people outside of our corporate location have found a work around, I guess I’ll put my feelers out internally,

cheers

What email client do you use for your corporate mail? Perhaps you can forward incoming mail on a rule criteria to an external mail address? If you company prohibits that, then all you can do is be in withdrawal:?

You could always ask if they will issue you a company BB. Maybe offer to pay them for its use. You never know unless you ask.

What about BlackBerry Redirector?

Had the same issue.

-Setup a rule in Outlook that all new mail gets redirected (not forwarded) to your BB carrier email addy.
-Setup BCC in BIS so that you get your replies back on yoru exchange server.
-Setup a rule in BIS to not send msgs from yourself to your handheld.
-Setup a rule in Outlook to automatically put all mail sent from your BB into your Sent Items folder and mark them as read.
