i've turned on the IMAP service and have it set to automatic. are you saying open up port 993 on firewall to forward IMAP to exchange server? secondly. is there anything else to be configured on IMAP. so for example. on the iphone..i would use imap.company.com or is there something else like the owa address that i would need? and they would authenticate using domain credentials?
yes, the iphone needs to be able to connect to 993 on the exchange server, thus this would need to opened on the firewall. nothing else should need to be configured for imap. on the iphone, you would use whatever you have configured in dns to connect to your exchange server externally. this is basic dns, so yes, the owa url should work fine. and yes, you would need to put domain credentials in the appropriate box in the iphone.
Heres a tutorial that might work. http://www.azaleos.net/blo
Hi
I have just got my iPhone working perfectly on Exchange 2007 using active Sync....
It seems to only work thro the GPRS network, and not thro a wireless network...
Try setting up as per the wizard screen on it for Exchange, ensuring that your ssl cert completely valid for OWA, and that it is Safari compatible (easy way to tell is to browse to your owa portal on the iphone, if you can login then all is ok)
there is no trickery at all, it is just the fact that for some reason mail does not work on wireless (wifi, not gprs)
I have found out because I was nearly at the end of my tether, and tried mobileme, which only works on the GPRS... I actually think that it has something to do with the Iphone not really carrying out proper name resolution on wireless (I know for a fact that it will only ever use the primary dns server, and ignores the secondary, and is grumpy if the dns server is win2003 box....)
hope that helpes...
Now a VERY happy iPhone owner :)
When an iphone is using it's internet connection it's 'outside' your network and resolves the name accordingly, but if you are in the office or network that houses your exchange server and you connect via wi-fi.. if that network isn't setup to properly route the DNS name to the local server.. you won't connect.. a firewall generally won't let you go out and back in again if you request an internet IP from a local network that points back to that network.

Yes. the iphone connects with imap, so the imap service has to be configured. you also have to open port 993 to the exchange server (for secure imap).
