[QUOTE="IanCT, post: 773596, member: 6074"] I doubt any administrator capable of running an Exchange server would "accidentally" wipe your phone. Speaking from experience as an Exchange 2003 admin, you can't accidentally wipe an ActiveSync enabled phone. There is no "Wipe Phone Now" button in plain sight. Be certain if it did happen, it wasn't on accident. But it is perfect if you lose your phone or if it's stolen. No. Admins will not be able to view anything on your phone, however, that said - whatever is stored on your Exchange account (email/contacts/calendar) they CAN see if they so choose but that is normally a privacy issue and depending on the company's user acknowledgement form (if exists) or company IT policy, they can either do it at any time without warning, or have to notify you first. But anything on your phone, MP3 audio, text messages, personal contacts (not synced with ActiveSync) they cannot access. You can always use IMAP to sync your email (if enabled by the company), but IMAP will not sync your contacts or calendar. [/QUOTE]
