NOTE- Meeting Planner and Calendar functions not available on $5 Monthly Managed Email Exchange plan.
*Devices and GPRS plan costs are not included.
Synchronisation via your mobile device with the version of Outlook installed on
your PC is only available to customers with MAPI Access (ie. using Managed Email
Exchange $15 or $20 plans only).
^ Mac IMAP4 Users access to Public Folders
is being blocked, to mitigate the risk of a known Microsoft design feature that
impacts clients that access public folders via iMAP4. Clients that currently
access public folders via IMAP will need to utilise Outlook Web Access if
continued access to these folders is required.
How many emails are included in my plan?+
The number of emails you can send and receive will be determined by their size. As a handy guide remember that an email with 20 lines of text and no attachments is approximately 2Kb. So, 500 emails will use approximately 1MB of data.
+Optus Zoo/WAP GPRS browsing and downloading charges excluded. See terms and conditions for details.
Step 3
Decide how many BlackBerry users you require and add-on the per user fee to your monthly email hosting plan charges
| Add-On Options | |
| BlackBerry Add-On * per mailbox per month | $15.00 |
*Devices and GPRS plan costs are not included. Synchronisation via your mobile device with the version of Outlook installed on your PC is only available to customers with MAPI Access (ie. using Managed Email Exchange $15 or $20 plans only).
