Is my Blackberry preventing Outlook from marking messages as replied to or forwarded?

I've noticed that when I have a Blackberry running, in addition to having Outlook open, emails that I reply to directly from within Outlook sometimes don't get the "replied to" or "forwarded" icons on them in Outlook. This is annoying, because I rely on that icon to tell whether I've yet responded to someone. I assume this is due to the Blackberry because it never happened before I got one, and now only happens when it's running. Can I prevent this without turning off the Blackberry?

The Blackberry and Blackberry Enterprise Server are almost certainly your problem. I have had similar problems under my (slightly different) setup ever since I got my BB. As far as I can tell, the problem is that BES continually deletes and recreates emails on the server. In other words, it's a piece of crap and there's not really anything you can do about it.
