Assigning the proper permissions for besadmin on BlackBerry Enterprise Server

Assigning permissions for the BlackBerry Enterprise Ser, BES, BES administrator, BES permissions information store, BES service account, besadmin, Blackberry Enterprise Server, BlackBerry Enterprise Server service account, Doc ID KB02276, Exchange 2000, Exchange 2003, Exchange 2007, information store, permissions, receive as, send as, service account

Sometimes the problems administrators run into with BES are simply due to improper permissions. The besadmin account (the BlackBerry administrator account) requires certain permissions to do it’s job correctly.

More often than not we find out that someone has been mucking around with the permissions or they just weren’t set correctly in the first place and this causes an issue with BlackBerry devices sending and receiving e-mail.

BlackBerry has some nice directions on their web site on how to setup the appropriate permissions. You can find them here.
