Motorola Droid
Any word on Android 2.1 Update
Does anyone know if the update to 2.1 will fix the issues people are having with exchange email security features?
I really love this phone, but I can't get the exchange to work on it because there are features that are not supported by that phone in place.

I'm pretty sure that the "problem", such as it is, is more something Microsoft needs to fix. And I doubt there's much chance of that.
If my understanding is correct, however, some of those security settings are configuration choices made by the exchange administrators, so you might be able to get your IT department to change some of the policies, and get it to work. However, they are likely to be unwilling to do that, as it could, potentially, open up the exchange server to attack.
Funny how only microsoft products seem to be that vulnerable to attack. 'Nuff said on that subject, I think, for this forum, in any event!

That may be true that Microsoft certainly has its issues with virus and attacks, but other operating systems can't ignore the fact that 95% of the businesses in the world use their office products to get by every day. That being said, hopefully the new update will enable the acceptance of some of these security policies that aren't currently accepted on the DROID
