Constant Connection Between Mail Server and RIM Server

Hi,

 

I'm a newbie in need for some advise about Blackberry Email Account :smileyhappy:

 

I am currently having a problem at the office. Since January 2012, our outgoing bandwidth is increasing in constant rate and it is steadily high at current time. Here are some of my findings:

  1. there is a constant connection to port 993 (IMAPS that's being used by blackberry email account)
  2. the constant connection is leading to RIM IP and XO Communication
  3. the bandwidth outgoing usage is constant (at about 2.5Mbps approximately)
  4. Our user has started setting up their office email on their personal Blackberry devices

This is causing some concern regarding our company email, does some of the email accounts got infected by virus? Please help me out with this, it might not be a normal case, but any advice to solve this problem will be highly appreciated.

 

Thank you,

Re: Constant Connection Between Mail Server and RIM Server

IMAP will be connected all the time and there has never been a BlackBerry virus.

 

Mail Clients will connect at all times if left on.
