Scale of Users
The Google Apps Connector for BlackBerry Enterprise Server is designed to support up to 500
users. If you need to add more than this number of users, install additional servers.
The exact number of users you can support depends on your server hardware and operating
system. For more information, see “Server Requirements” on page 21.
Labels/Folders
Google Apps allows users to tag mail using labels instead of folders. A single message can
have multiple labels, which allows greater flexibility in managing and searching for messages.
The Google Apps Connector implements labels by creating a folder for each label. If a
message has multiple labels, the connector creates a separate copy for each label.
Note that if the BlackBerry user has folder redirection set up for Labels/Folders outside of the
default Inbox, the user may see multiple copies of the same message in the Inbox of the
BlackBerry device. This is due to the fact that BlackBerry does not support labels.
If a user wishes to avoid this, they can change filter rules in Google Apps to avoid multiple
labels, or change Folder Redirection rules on the BlackBerry device to avoid redirecting
intersecting folders.
Create BlackBerry Enterprise Server Users

For documentation for your users, see the Google Apps Connector for BlackBerry Enterprise
