Configuring a Microsoft Exchange 2010 messaging environment
Create a Windows account that has a Microsoft Exchange 2010 mailbox
You must create a Windows account with a Microsoft Exchange 2010 mailbox so that the Windows account can authenticate with the Microsoft Exchange Server.
Before you begin: If you want free/busy lookups to work in Microsoft Outlook 2003 and earlier, you must configure Microsoft Exchange 2010 to support Microsoft Outlook 2003 and earlier by creating a public folder database. For more information about supporting Microsoft Outlook 2003 and earlier, visit http://support.microsoft.com to read article 555851 and visit http://technet.microsoft.com to read articles 123694, 124270, 397221, and 691120.
1.On the computer that hosts Microsoft Exchange, log in using an administrator account that has the permission to create accounts.
2.Open the Microsoft Exchange Management Console.
3.Create an account and mailbox that you name BESAdmin.
4.To permit the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to check if a BlackBerry device user has permission to access a public folder, assign the Owner permission for all public folders to the administrator account.
After you finish:
•To verify that you created the Windows account, log in to a computer using the Windows account.
•Verify that the Windows account is not a member of the Domain Administrators group in Microsoft Active Directory.
•Verify that BlackBerry device users have Read permissions and Visible permissions to public folders.
•To permit BlackBerry device users to check the availability of meeting participants using BlackBerry Device Software 4.5 or later, configure the Schedule+ Free/Busy information for the system public folder.
