Poll: Are You Married to Your Mobile E-mail?
Odds are, your company has issued you a BlackBerry or Windows Mobile phone -- or just assumes you get one on your own. So now you get corporate e-mail pushed to your pocket on a continuous basis, 24/7. But how do you respond to that constant flow of messages?

So what does your boss or corporate policy expect from you and your mobile e-mail account?
