Assuming you have already have Exchange, and further assuming that you have
more than one user with a BB, I'd highly recommend getting a BES.
How well do the other services handle calendar\contacts sync? Exchange users
accustomed to these features will expect them on their handhelds.
I agree with Dean - Avoid the Desktop Redirector software like the plague.
I've seen similar stunts with Treo software. Friends don't let friends
install server software on desktop machines, and the Redirector software and
equivalents are essentially server services.

Subject: [MSUNAG] Blackberry devices and MSU mail
Can anyone give me some advice on integrating a Blackberry device with MSU
mail?
Is it better to run Exchange and get the Blackberry Enterprise Server?
Can I set the Blackberry up with IMAP and use the MSU mail server instead?
Thanks,
Matt
