I have a BlackBerry, and several customers with them. I enter dot comma
blackberry_address
(ie: .,someb...@vzw.blackberry.net) in the user's forwarding field. It
keeps a copy on the server for downloading to the user's desktop, and sends
a copy along to the BB.
I have my BB set up to copy my address on all replies I send from the unit.
That way, I get an extra copy on the BB, but I also get a copy of everything
I send from the BB on my desktop. It works really well once you shut off
all the receipts that BB sends by default.
I'm extremely happy with fairly simple setup, and it has been working
perfectly.

I have Blackberry users and I have a rule that sends a copy of any emails
that haven't been flagged as spam to the user's BB email address. Works
great and doesn't require the user to do any thinking (the source of many
of my problems).

Thanks everyone for your responses. It’s odd, and funny at the same time,
that some of my “less-technical” end-users are getting more techie than I
am. That’s what happens they are taken by a “Storm”. On the other hand, I
AM techie enough that don’t want to get my email everywhere!
I have a few users who are set up to leave a copy on the server. It’s
been working ok, but I wasn’t sure whether that was the best way to do
it, or to use IMAP. I have only suggested IMAP to a few people as, like
others say, you get several people with a few GB and suddenly you can run
out of room. So I think I will use the “leave on server” method as
several suggested and be done with it.
I also understand that Verizon has a sync method which I have heard is
good. Unfortunately, a lot of these people are using laptops too, and
want their phone set up as a convenience. So their mail client wouldn’t
always be on.
Thanks again for your feedback!!!

We recommend everyone leave messages for 10 days on all devices so
everything goes everywhere. IMAP is nice but when your users are sucking
up 2+ GB's of space each you run out of storage pretty quickly.
