OK, this DOES require IMAP4 be enabled on your Exchange server and your firewall. Also, Exchange 2003 SP2.. and an iPhone (duh). You SHOULD do this via WiFi the first time because the inital sync might kill you over EDGE.
Setup Exchange 2003 for IMAP4 (incoming emails to your iPhone)
1. Go into Exchange System Manager. Expand to Administrative Groups > GroupName > Servers > Exchange_server_2003 > Protocols > IMAP4.
2. Create a new IMAP4 Virtual Server. New > IMAP4 Virtual Server&
3. Give it a name
4. Assign IP to AllUnassigned
5. A new IMAP4 Server should be assigned in the right pane. Right click on it, and go into properties.
6. Leave General tab as is. (unless you want to change the default TCP ports of 143 and SSL port of 993)
7. In Access tab, click on Authentication& button. If you want to use SSL or have Weboutlook going into SSL automatically, then you do not need the Requires SSL/TLS encryption button. Otherwise, you need to check box it. Otherwise your password will be going via cleartext!!
8. Okay, and get out of this window.
9. Repeat the same steps on your backend server (if needed).
Setup Exchange 2003 for SMTP (outgoing emails from your iPhone)
1. Go into Exchange System Manager. Expand to Administrative Groups > GroupName > Servers > Exchange_server_2003 > Protocols > SMTP.
2. Create a new SMTP Virtual Server. New > SMTP Virtual Server&
3. Give it a name
4. Assign IP to AllUnassigned
5. A new SMTP Server should be assigned in the right pane. Right click on it, and go into properties.
6. Leave General tab as is. (unless you wnat to change the default TCP port of 25)
7. In Access tab, click on Authentication& button.
8. Click on the Users button and add the appropriate mobile users who will have an iPhone that will be sending. Make sure you only include those you want to be able to send. * Otherwise, you will have a nice open SMTP server for all the spammers to spam if you put everyone * Click OK and OK when you are done with the users and Authentication.
9. Skip Messages Tab
10. Click on Delivery tab and on Advanced button
11. If this Exchange server you are setting up is a front-end server, you will want to fill the Smart host field with your Back-end Server or whatever server processes your outgoing SMTP requests. If your Back-end server has an IP address of 192.168.1.2 put the IP address in a square bracket. Ie. [192.168.1.2] Click on OK when you are done.
12. You do not need to do this on your back-end server if your back-end server is sending the outgoing emails.
Firewall:
Depending on what firewall you have: Cisco Pix, Nokia checkpoint, etc. youll need to open the following TCP ports to the front-end Exchange server to the world.
* IMAP4 (ie 143)
* SMTP (ie. 25)
* SSL IMAP4 (ie.993)
Exchange Services:
* You need to set Microsoft Exchange IMAP43 Service to Automatic and Start the service.
* You need to set Microsoft Exchange SMTP Service to Automatic and Start the service. (if it isnt already)
Apple iPhone:
I would recommend putting your iPhone onto a wifi network instead of EDGE until you get this up. Edge works fine on updates, but
1. Go into the main Springboard page (With all the icons)
2. Tap Settings
3. Tap Mail
4. Tap Other
5. Tap Exchange
6. Fill in the Name, Email address and a brief description of your work email
7. In the Incoming Mail Server
Fill in the Host Name of your Weboutlook server. (Ie. owa.testserver.com)
8. Fill in the Username with your domain and username. (IE. TESTDOMAIN\USERNAME)
9. Fill in your password
10. In the Outgoing Mail Server
11. Fill in the Host Name of your Weboutlook server. (Ie. owa.testserver.com)
12. Fill in the Username with your domain and username. (IE. TESTDOMAIN\USERNAME)
13. Fill in your password
14. Tap Save and it should say Verifying Exchange account information on top.
15. The screen should go back to your Mail screen, and you are set.
16. Go into Mail and you will see your email box in the account tab all the way on top.
Troubleshooting
* Make sure your firewall to IMAP4 and SMTP is open. You can usually check this if you do the telnet test via command line (ie. telnet owa.testserver.com 143). You should see a * OK Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 IMAP4rev1 server& reply . Just make sure you are testing this from outside your network.
* Make sure your webaddress, username and password and tapped correctly. The iPhone is notorious for mistyping extra long passwords.
