Ahh. Thanks Michael.

I'll make sure the team updates their documentation to either remove
Exchange Attributes -- which I assume isn't too difficult to add back on in
the event the user returns -- or disable certain mailbox features. To
confirm, in regard to BES, if i disable the MAPI function, that should
suffice right?
