Does anyone have a general comparison of Pros and Cons when it comes to using the Desktop Redirector, Web Client (Internet Service), a mail server forward, or the BES? I use different delivery methods for different clients but it seems each one has its pitfalls. The Redirector requires that the user always leave a computer on and logged into their profile (or a profile configured with their MAPI settings). The Web Client has a delay of 15 minutes when polling e-Mail over OWA. I think the forward has immediate delivery but fills up the BlackBerry handheld because it is not a real "sync". And then there is the BES which some clients just dont want to purchase. Is there a general comparison of pitfalls for each of these methods just so I am aware what to tell clients before deployment?

Thanks in advance!
