Exchange security policy for Android phones Active Sync

Hi all,

I have a small Exchange server that I would like to connect a couple Android based phones to. During setup I get a message that tells me that Exchange requires you to enable security policies and then presents a list: Erase all data, limit password etc.

I'm running Windows 2008 SBS with Exchange 2007.

Where is this policy maintained in Exchange? Can I disable it so that the users do not get this message?

I assume that the policy only allows the Exchange admin to carry out these actions but I'd like to make sure what the policy does and how I can adjust it.

I've seen those settings, but I'm unsure if they will prevent that screen from coming up on the phone talking about  enabling security policies. The language is a little vague to a non-technical end user.

I'd like to prevent the policy from being pushed to the phone totally. Anyway of doing that?
That was it, I decided to just go ahead and try it and the policy message never appeared...very transparent to the user. Thanks!
