I have been looking for an application that creates a BES only email view and found BESMail from EMpower. But after searching a bit more found the following
Blackberry support note KB15003. Has anyone enabled this on their BES 5.0 server?
What were the results? Did this hide the messages that are moved to a folder but still show up in the mailbox except now they have a folder icon?
Thanks for any and all assistance,

Regards,

I tested this when it first came out and it does exactly what it states. It makes a new message folder on the main screen. All corporate emails will now be in this folder. Any BIS acocunts will go to Messages.

I never rolled this out for the main fact the folder created is named DESKTOP. I want to be able to name this folder whatever I want via BES policy (or other means) I feel this "as is" would just confuse users thought this is in the top 5 of things users always ask about.

If you're wanting to separate corporate/BES message from personal/BIS messages, this is what you'd want. It is no more than a filter-based display within an icon. It creates the new Desktop icon which filters the display for corporate/BES messages only. The Messages icon will still have the mixture of corporate/BES and personal/BIS messages, so I'd highly recommend hiding icons if you decide to enable this feature.

As this is a global setting, be cautious and plan accordingly. With this configuration, I would hide the Messages icon and unhide/show any BIS icons and the Desktop/BES icon. So if the user has two GMail accounts and one BES account, they'd have three separate email-related icons being shown (with Messages being hidden).

I do something similar to my girlfriend's device, where she has two BIS addresses. We hide the Messages icon and have her two BIS icons (which are also filtered views) being shown.

Although it's an extra icon or more, I think this is the best way to do it. I just wish RIM would allow us to hide/unhide icons as we see fit, especially at an individual level, but oh well.

Thanks for the replys, Blackberries are being piloted at this point. We were using the Verizon Q Windows Mobile devices with Activesync. This device had an Outlook client on it so it was easier to maintain message and folder separation. I have two camps in my pilot group. Those who hate the all in one message view and those who love the all in one message view.
Unfortunately for me the clients who hate the all in one view are the ones who will decide weather or not to go with Blackberries.
