I have a client using SBS 2003, I cant get my droid or an Iphone 3 to connect to the server and get email. I have no errors if I goto use exchange web I can connect. when I did https://server.com/oma I got the following message.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustomp
</system.web>
</configuration>
I need to get this running today for my client. Please help

Here is the strange part I can send out emails from my phone but still will not show any emails. It keeps trying and trying with no time outs.
Have al look in the iis logs for any http status codes when a the phones connect. Post the relevant entries here if you are unsure.
explain how you configured the email client to connect. Sounds like a security / authentication issue.
Can you connect via imap?
Can you connect via imap?
i dont think it would be an authentication issue because they connect to server with no error message and they are able to send out emails.
does this happen to all phones or just those 2 phones?

Oh your right good point.
Did you set this up as an exchange on your phone?
What settings did you use?

Sorry I have not answered this I had been pulled off of it, I can connect to the OWA server, since the time of the question we even brought a new Go Daddy Cert rather then use a built in on. I have tried several different phones and still nothing, I can do Imap on my droid, yet I cant do it on a Iphone 3 or 4.
My main goal here was to get it to connect on the droid and Ipohones though exchange and not have to use IMAP. I have re installed SP2 to see if this made a difference and the outcome was no.
When i connect to the server using https://domain.com/oma that is where I was seeing the error.
One important note on the new SSL the customer brought is 2048 bit rather then the normal 1024.
