The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

IPod Touch Exchange on SBS2003

Asked by Mixmangle in Exchange Email Server

I am running SBS 2003 SP 2 and Exhange.  Mail is retrieved via POP3 Connector (Yeah, I know)

In the past I have configured a Windows Mobile phone to sync (Using the phone's data service) and a Palm TX to sync within my local lan only via WiFi (Versamail 3.5)

OWA works fine, RWW works fine -  and so does OMA on Mobile devices. OMA also works when I attempt it to use it on the IPod Touch and Safari.  My e-mail domain is somewhere else, but I have added a dns on the domain host records so that exchange.mydomain.com resolves out to the Public IP of my Router.  

I am now using a IPod Touch, and I can't get it to work either way - either by specifying local lan info or External IP.  It's the 2.2.1 version of OS on the Touch and it offers a setup wizard for Exchange.

First, it tells me it can't verify certificate.  I assume this is the same as when I connect via OWA to mydomain.com/exchange.  I tell it to continue.  And, at some point it looks like it will accept things.  But to doublecheck, I fo into the mailbox, and that's where I get a "Connection to the server failed".  WiFi is on, I can surf the net.  

I have tried both the exchange.mydomain.com and the internal ip of the server as well as the server name.  

Is it possible that, when I try the external IP in the setup, the wifi can't carry things out and then right back in - - - - like it might work from some other place but not from on my side of the router?

I would love to get it bullet proof so that wherever I have wifi I can sync (trusted providers, btw). But I would be happy too, if like my Palm TX, I could just update it when on the LAN and then have to use OMA. It's a bit difficult in the Touch's Safari - - but I can manage.  I don't really need access to new e-mail when away from my network. It's not needed so much for e-mail as updated calendar whenever I am in the office.

Can someone please help me troubleshoot this issue?  I have googled and looked at this and that. But I keep thinking "If it worked on my Palm TX, why can't I get at least that much working on this touch".  I still have the TX and versamail syncs with Exchange fine (Mail, Calendar, contacts).  

Thanks
