In BlackBerry Enterprise Server software version 4.1, Hard Deletes Reconciliation can be enabled so that messages permanently deleted in Microsoft Outlook are removed from the messages list on the BlackBerry device. This feature is disabled by default.

The support for hard deletes uses a Message State Database stored in the computer memory. This database is enabled by default even if the Hard Deletes Reconciliation is disabled. By default, the last 100 messages are tracked for hard delete support in the Message State Database, but this number can be changed.

The Message State Database may be reset so that messages redirected to a BlackBerry device during a previous BlackBerry Enterprise Server session will not be deleted, even if they are hard deleted in the BlackBerry device user’s mailbox. Any of the following actions will reset the Message State Database:
* The BlackBerry Enterprise Server is restarted.
* The BlackBerry device user is moved to another BlackBerry Enterprise Server.
* The BlackBerry device user’s mailbox is moved to another Exchange Server.
* The BlackBerry Enterprise Server administrator sends a Reload User command from BlackBerry Manager.

The requirements to enable Hard Deletes Reconciliation are listed in the following table:
Component Requirement
