Default Pushing E-Mail To Blackberry To Non-Company Blackberry

I've joined a new organization few weeks ago that uses BES and issues company owned BB based on your position in organization. I have my own Bold and was wondering if I can get my company e-mail pushed using OWA.

I've spoke with the administrator and was told that currently company doesn't push e-mail to non-company issued BB. I can however access my e-mail via web using OWA from my laptop and BB browser and was wonder if there is some way I could setup a new mail account using OWA much like you would POP or IMAP.

I've tried going thru mail setup wizard but it never connects to BES server but I do get message in my company e-mail account letting me know that an unsuccessful attempt was made to setup account. I'm with AT&T and they told me I need to have BES added to my account and I'll be ok but that's a added fee each month does that sound right?

Here are my question:

Is there any way I can have my BES e-mail pushed to my Bold using OWA? If so how do I do it?

After playing around with it a bit more I finally got it configured properly. In my case I had to use my e-mail address as my mail box name also. The easist way to determine proper setting is sign in via OWA hover over mailbox and look in task pain for for mailbox name.

As you found out, BIS supports OWA as long as it isnt behind an ISA server. The mailbox name issue is a pain and in Exchange 2003 you can hover over the mailbox and read the URL (including mailbox name) from the status line of the browser. I dont know how you get the same info for Exchange 2007 as it doesnt show the same info.
