Hi guys. I've been asked to look into some issues that are being experienced by users in another part of our Company (with a completely separate AD/Ex2003 infrastructure to our own). One of the issues is as follows: when a mail account has a Blackberry enabled against it (through BES), there is an intermittent issue that prevents the users saving changes to their email items. I have had a search around various forums and sites but I can't find anything concrete about this. Here is a blow-by-blow description of the problem from the end user:
PA's need to leave electronic notes at the top of emails in their own inboxes and in their bosses inboxes for the purposes of reminders or updates. I personally must need to do this at least 15-20 times every day.
Intermittently the system will not let you do it. You add the note, go to save the email and exit, and the following message comes up
"The item could not be saved because it has been changed by another user or in another window"
The only way around this is….you must copy the note you have added, exit without saving, go back in and add the note again. Then usually it will save the email.
Here are some specs:
BES 4.1.4 MR4, Exchange 2003 SP2 (plus numerous hotfixes) running Trend AV. All Windows Server 2003. Versions of CDO.dll and MAPI32.dll are confirmed to match. Users all on Outlook 2003 (most on SP2, one or two on SP3) not in cached mode.
I have found the following article on RIM's knowledge base, but I don't think either of the listed scenarios apply (not every time this happens, at least):

Any suggestions are very welcome!
