Can I move the BESAdmin account to the new exchange 2010 server while my current Blackberry Users are still on Exchange 2007?

Please check the BES Admin section of the forum.

yes but you have to do a bit or work first and hopefully you are on BES 5.

Yes i am on BES 5.0.3 MR3, I was going to set the throttling policies tonight and move the BESAdmin account as well. I just didn't want to break 865 users BB users by moving the BES Admin Account. I am going to move a couple test users tomorrow after I make the changes recommended in the link.

Just to make sure when I move the BES admin and set the throttling policies it will not cause any outage; is that correct?

I had a major problem with the BES throttling policy not taking and devices dying randomly. My solution was to change the settings of the default throttling policy, which fixed it.

I take it back because it happened again this morning. Five calls to RIM can't fix it. Thank god my top execs have all switched to iPhones and Androids. I don't like it but this will hasten the exodus.
