I currently use my work exchange server to hold all my emails and contacts...but my sever requires that i have a password on my mogul.

Just wondering if anybody knows how to get around this and disable it? I hate having to type in a password every 15 minutes whenever i want to look at my phone...such a pain! I would much rather just have it whenever the phone starts...or maybe even like every 2 hours or so...not 15 minutes!!

Please helppppp!!!!

Thanks!

I'm attached to a Zimbra server for email/contacts. I just checked it's user options and did not see an option for that.

I do speculate that it's an option on the Exchange though. It's been a few years since I managed one. You'd probably be in good shape checking with your admin about this...

He's talking about the hardware security policies pushed to the handset by Exchange Server.

Yes - there are ways to disable and alter the effective policies on your handsets. However, they are in place because you are accessing your company server and any sensitive information on your phone should be protected from loss. (for this reason, I always strongly dissuede people from using personal handsets for company/government/official business) As a piece of IT/Communications gear, those phones are subject to the same security requirements enforced across the entire organization.

If you must be the weak link in your company's security, you can find hints to open a vulnerability here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=43428
