After connecting your Blackberry to a BES (Blackberry Enterprise Server) to receive your corporate email over a secured connection, the default name given to your corporate inbox is "Desktop." Although this name serves its purpose, it's a bit impersonal. A BES administrator has the ability to do just about everything on your Blackberry from forcing the use of a password to preventing you from downloading new ringtones. However, she cannot change the name of your BES email account on your phone, but you can.
