Note: This setting applies only to the default mail and organizer apps on devices with the MDM controls activation type.

Enable BlackBerry Secure Connectivity as the per-account VPN

This setting specifies whether devices should use BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus as the per-account VPN for email data. This is an alternative to associating per-account VPN profiles and provides the added benefit of leveraging BlackBerry’s secure connectivity infrastructure.

This option is off by default. When enabled, the device will use the configuration of its assigned enterprise connectivity profile. The default enterprise connectivity profile is assigned if no other enterprise connectivity profile was assigned previously. The enterprise connectivity profile that is assigned at the user level will be used for the per-account VPN, and will take precedence over any enterprise connectivity profiles assigned at the app level. If device-wide VPN is enabled in the enterprise connectivity profile that is assigned to a user, the "Enable Blackberry Secure Connectivity as the per-account VPN" setting has no effect.

Before you enable this setting, set the Per-account VPN setting to None to remove any assigned per-account VPN.

Per-account VPN

This setting specifies the VPN profile that is used for this account’s network communication.

Authentication

Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway

This setting specifies whether devices with the MDM controls activation type use the BlackBerry Secure Gateway to connect to the mail server. The BlackBerry Secure Gateway provides a secure connection to your organization's mail server through the BlackBerry Infrastructure and BlackBerry UEM.

If you configured server groups to direct BlackBerry Secure Gateway traffic to a specific regional connection to the BlackBerry Infrastructure, you must associate the email profile with the appropriate server group.

Authentication type

This setting specifies the type of authentication a device uses to connect to the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected.

Shared certificate profile

This setting specifies the shared certificate profile for the client certificate that a device uses to connect to the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected and the "Authentication type" setting is set to "Shared certificate."

Associated SCEP profile

This setting specifies the associated SCEP profile that a device uses to enroll a client certificate to use for authentication with the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected and the "Authentication type" setting is set to "SCEP".

Associated ACME profile

This setting specifies the associated ACME profile that a device uses to enroll a client certificate to use for authentication with the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected and the "Authentication type" setting is set to "ACME".

Associated user credential profile

This setting specifies the associated user credential profile that a device uses to enroll a client certificate to use for authentication with the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected and the "Authentication type" setting is set to "User credential."

Use credentials and certificate

This setting specifies whether a device uses credentials and a client certificate obtained using the associated SCEP profile to authenticate with the mail server.

This setting is valid only if the "Enable BlackBerry Secure Gateway" setting is not selected and the "Authentication type" setting is set to "SCEP."

Use OAuth for authentication

This setting specifies whether the connection should use OAuth for authentication.

OAuth sign-in URL

External email domains

External email domain allowed list

This setting specifies the list of domains that a user can send work email or calendar entries to. For example, when a user adds a recipient who has an email address in the allowed domain to an email message or calendar entry, no warning message is displayed. This setting applies to the work space only.

If you list multiple domain names, separate the domain names with a comma (,), semicolon (;), or space.

External email domain restricted list

This setting specifies the list of domains that users cannot send work email or calendar entries to. For example, if a user tries to add a recipient with an email address from the restricted domain to an email message or calendar invitation, the Work Connect app prevents the user from completing the task. This setting applies to the work space only.

If you list multiple domain names, separate the domain names with a comma (,), semicolon (;), or space.
