I just bought an 8700c from Ebay and found that this phone is a previously used BES phone and due to certain established policies by the previous administrator, I am not able to compose or reply to any SMS messages.

Please help.

Did you try wipping the handset?

Wiping will not fix this. You have to apply the default (no restrictions) IT Policy to remove the restrictions imposed by the former owner.
