I already have a solution but www.dexrex.com will back-up your sms in real-time by sticking an app permanently on your Blackberry. It's not very big but still, with Bold's limited RAM every Kb is important. Is there any other which doesn't require a permanent app resident in your memory?

I'm not sure how comfortable I would be giving that website or company my login credentials to my instant messengers just to log my conversations. I don't think it's worth the risk of getting my information hacked and used against me later.

I think desktop manager does just fine backing up my SMS's and MMS's. Especially b/c I do a backup routinely.

I don't have a problem with the fact that they have my data: I only use it for sms, I don't enter any data of my Messengers. For a company, sms' are useless because it's deals with minor stuff. Mine are in Romanian, so I really don't care-they're valuable just to me. – Bograma Nov 18 at 14:43
Good Point. I guess that if a company really doesn't want 3rd party apps installed, they'll create a policy for that on the device. – TRUMPF Nov 18 at 15:12
Do you use BES? Cause in this case I know you need to get approval from the IT department. I don't have this problem,the phone's mine,only the SIM is from the company. – Bograma Nov 19 at 13:24
Yes we use a BES. I work in the IT department ;) – TRUMPF Nov 19 at 15:43

Haven't tried it to be sure, but might be worth picking up the latest version of Blackberry Messenger from the App World. BBM v5.055 groups SMS text messages from your Messenger buddies into the conversation window as a threaded conversation. Since v5 it's also had an option to back up all your messages to your SD Card. As I said I haven't tried it yet, but it's possible this might back up your texts without anything additional installed?

Yes, but even if it's possible it will only back up BBM contacts. What about the rest, 99% of the ones smsing me? Yeah, I guess almost nobody cares about sms:)Thanks anyway! – Bograma Dec 19 at 7:17
