Create a Windows account and mailbox
You must create and configure a Windows® account and mailbox in Microsoft® Active
Directory® for the BlackBerry® Enterprise Server so that the account can authenticate to the Microsoft® Exchange messaging server.
- On any computer within the Windows domain, on the taskbar, click Start > Programs > Microsoft Exchange > Active Directory Users and Computers.
- Create an account that has following attributes:
- Create a Microsoft Exchange mailbox for the account.
- Assign the account the Send As permission for all user accounts in the User container of the Microsoft Active Directory domain.
- To activate the new mailbox, send a test email message.
You might not be able to see the Windows account in the Microsoft Active Directory to verify that you created it. To verify that you created the Windows account, log in to a computer using the Windows account.
