I don't know off the top of my head what replacements there are for remote wipe, but it sounds useful. The push service sounds like it could be easily handled with an alias lookup that maps users to blackberry or phone addresses, presumably with an extra LDAP lookup in your MTA routing. > How much daily support would it require to keep it going? 6000 users > is a lot to manage. I don't think a significant amount. It depends on whether you also have to admin the end user hardware, of course, but the server side can (unless they do vast amounts of email) probably be handled with a single reasonable machine. That shouldn't be more than a few hours a week to keep up with security upgrades and the occasional trouble ticket. -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | Keep emotionally active.
