  For all users on the server?  That's odd.  I've had various cases
where a given user will have trouble, but not everyone.  Granted,
there are only 11 users on our BES, but still.

  I would indeed try removing and re-adding the device -- or more
precisely, the user.  When BB Manager asks if you want to delete the
BlackBerry info, say "Yes".  Then re-add the user and reactivate the
device.  This is really harmless -- no user data should be lost from
either server mailbox or handheld.  It only discards server metadata
and other "behind the scenes" stuff.  (But remember, backups are
*always* a good idea.)

  We're running BES 4.mumble against Exchange 2003.  Behavior may be
different against other mail servers.

  Before you do anything else, check the logs.  Both Windows Event
Spewer and the BES text logs.  BES logs *gobs* of debug information to
the text logs.  This will often at least point out that there is a
problem, even if you don't know how to fix it.
