I have to speak up on this. I'm a network engineer - and have supported messaging systems - including Exchange & Blackberry - for many years. Just get a Blackberry assigned to you and don't do any sync with your 6800.

I have a 6800 now - not in a role where I required/want/need a blackberry anymore - and couldn't imagine depending on that thing for responsive email. Its just horrible at it. I sync my Calendar & Contacts - but that's it.

The Blackberry does all synchronization - wirelessly - almost flawlessly (unless someone got their paws in and hosed up the BES or a device) - and nothing comes close to matching it.

Continuing to "try to find a solution" the way you are is nothing but potential headaches for yourself, definitely your IT staff and it circumvents data security. You are so putting your company at risk...I'm not "just saying that" - you really are - in many many ways - regardless of how secure you may think you're being right now or trying to be...good luck if you get found out by your IT staff...

PS: You said initially you were given access w/Goodlink as a courtesty as you didn't need a "company phone". Well, they've changed technology on you - so its highly likely that if you truly "need" access to Outlook/email - that they'll now give you a Blackberry, providing you can justify it. It IS possible to get a data only plan if they're worried about voice usage. . .
