Sorry I'm late in replying, but I don't read this list much any more due to 
time constraints...8-) .

I guess I don't quite understand the question, not having any experience with 
either system's "secure" mail forwarding. We have several executives with 
Blackberrys and no complaints.

What I do is use procmail and put in a rule that delivers to the person's 
blackberry address and then continues to deliver to the default mailbox 
in /var/mail.

In ~/.procmailrc....

:0 c
! user@attwireless.blackberry.net

:0
${default}



To do this, you set up procmail from ports and then rewrite the sendmail.mc 
file to use procmail as the local deliver agent.

Since the mail is plain text anyway, I don't understand the 'secure' 
question..

Hope this helps..
