Google Apps email accounts are treated differently from regular Gmail accounts. When setting up Gmail accounts in a BlackBerry device the @gmail.com domain flags the account as a Gmail account and specific backend setup for Gmail is done. However, with Google Apps email, the domain is @yourdomain.com and it isn’t identified as a Gmail account. The existing setup doesn’t provide a mechanism to specify that it’s a Gmail account and the specific Gmail support setup is not applied.
