Blackberry and Exchange

The migration continues...

Blackberry 4.1.3 and Exchange 2003 - works fine, no problem. But move the punter to Exchange 2007 and everything stops. No emails, no LDAP lookups to the GAL, nothing.
There is a 4.1.4 version of Blackberry available for download but it would be faster to get it on disk as it took me about 5.5 hours to download as it runs at about 12kb/s!!

After applying the 4.1.4 update, restart the BES and follow the instructions and you are sort of complaint to Exchange 2007 however I was not.

After checking several things I cured the problem by removing the BES admin account from Exchange wide view only admin and readding it - bizarre but there we go.

All now "appears" to be working on that front.
