Configuring the BlackBerry Enterprise
Server to use LDAP to retrieve email
addresses and organizer data
By default, when BlackBerry device users search for recipients' email addresses or organizer data, the BlackBerry
Enterprise Server uses MAPI to connect to the Microsoft Exchange Server and retrieve the email addresses or organizer
data that is stored in Microsoft Active Directory. You can configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to use LDAP to
connect to Microsoft Active Directory directly to retrieve email addresses, organizer data, or both.
When you configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to use LDAP to retrieve email addresses and organizer data, you help
reduce the MAPI connections that the BlackBerry Enterprise Server requires which helps improve the performance of the
BlackBerry Enterprise Server and Microsoft Exchange Server. In a Microsoft Exchange 2010 environment, if you configure
the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to use LDAP, you cannot migrate users to different forests.
If you configure Hosted BlackBerry services, you must configure the BlackBerry Enterprise Server to use LDAP to retrieve
email addresses.
