I have Googled this with minimal luck.
We have some users who are accessing their corporate mail via BIS. Though we

You can block the ports, but I don't have that doc handy.
You can also put a captcha on your OWA page which will stop BIS and Android

I believe all you need to do is block RIM's servers on your firewall from
