Hi,

If the BlackBerry smartphone is connected to a BlackBerry Enterprise Server then the Administrator of the server has the control to enable and disable the monitoring and the limitation of the BlackBerry smartphone.

This seems close, but you have it backwards. For a personally owned device, the question should be how much access and control the owner allows the company.

We would compromise on security if we were to use a shared Exchange server running on Windows for our emails.
Hosted BES could work I suppose, connecting to our servers via Activesync, but it would be best to just deliver BES as a .war that can be run on Linux or FreeBSD.

This is a job of your MTA not BES. Please see your mail provider to answer this question.
