We are running BES 5 express, and have a dozen blackberry users setup on it.
I am wondering if there is a way to delete or remove any additional email accounts besides the BES/Domain account?
Some users have setup their Hotmail or Gmail accounts on the blackberry, and we want to keep it business related only.
I'm new with the BES administration, and would like to know if there's an easy way to do this through policy without having to touch every blackberry out there?
Any suggestions?
Thanks

I'm pretty positive that this is not supported by the free version of BES. BESx is geared towards small to medium sized businesses whose users bring their own Blackberry devices. I think you would be up **** creek trying to force someone to remove their personal email from their personal device.

They are not the users' own Blackberry devices, they are company purchased devices... we just don't want them to install personal emails on them.
But thanks for the heads up.

With BES Express i do not believe that you can but giving a little bit of freedom to users can work in your favour.
A little bit of leniance is great but let them know that if their blackberry device breaks that you cannot backup their personal data as it is not work related.

If it makes you feel any better, get your boss to agree to an equipment loan form... seeing as they are effectively borrowing the BB off of the company and state in there that personal use is prohibited and that any personal data found will not get backed up etc etc etc
