Manage Mobile Device (options) via OWA
Is there a way to use the OWA Options; "Mobile Devices", with the Blackberry. There are useful tools such as recovering the mobile password and clearing the device if lost. I assume because the Blackberry is using BIS, that is why the mobile device doesn't show under "Mobile Devices" in Options within OWA.

Answer Wiki:
The "Mobile Devices" option is for Windows Mobile Devices. Blackberries are not windows mobile devices. That is why it will not show under "mobile devices". You are correct. To get the tools for the blackberry you would need to install a Blackberry Enterprise Server (BES), pay the license fee for the server and the license fees for every blackberry account you use on the BES server. The BES server gives the security controls for resetting the password and wiping the device and many more besides.
