Feature and Technical OverviewBlackBerry Enterprise Server components and features
Feature | Description |
|
|
email reconciliation | The BlackBerry Enterprise Server reconciles the status of messages between |
| users' BlackBerry devices and their email applications. If users delete, archive, |
| or move messages to personal folders in their email applications, the messages |
| are deleted from the message list on the users' BlackBerry devices. If users |
| mark messages as read or unread in their email applications, the messages |
| appear with the same status on their BlackBerry devices. |
| You can turn off wireless email reconciliation. |
|
|
email message filters | You or users can create and change email message filters. Email message filters |
| determine the actions that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server takes if incoming |
| messages match specific criteria: forward, forward with priority, or do not |
| forward to BlackBerry devices. For example, users can create email message |
| filters to forward messages from specific senders to their BlackBerry devices |
| with high priority. |
|
|
message forwarding | Users can turn off message forwarding to their BlackBerry devices (for example, |
| if users are outside of a wireless coverage area). You can also turn off message |
| forwarding to users' BlackBerry devices. |
|
|
signature | Users can add a signature to all messages that they send from their BlackBerry |
| devices. You can add a signature and disclaimers to all messages that the |
| members of a user group send or a specific user sends. |
|
|
Users can set and change their | |
| devices. |
|
|
contact lookup | Users can search for a contact’s first name, last name, or both in their |
| organization's directory. The BlackBerry Enterprise Server returns results for a |
| maximum of 20 of the closest matches. |
|
|
contact list updates | When users select contacts from the contact lookup results, they can add the |
| contacts to the contact lists on their BlackBerry devices. |
|
|
custom fields in the contact list | If your organization maintains custom fields in users’ personal contact lists, you |
| can map these fields to corresponding fields that appear in the contact list on |
| BlackBerry devices. Users can use these custom fields to search for contacts on |
| their BlackBerry devices. |
|
|
attachments | Users can send messages that contain attachments from their BlackBerry |
| devices. The BlackBerry Attachment Service does not convert these messages; |
| the BlackBerry Messaging Agent processes them only. Attachments must meet |
| the following requirements: |
| • If a user sends one attachment in a message, the file size of the attachment |
| cannot exceed 3 MB. |
| • If a user sends multiple attachments in a message, the total file size of the |
| attachments cannot exceed 5 MB. |
