Nah, not a biggie - your explanation is good enough for me to not worry 
about it...

Heh... actually, when the iPhone first came out, the employee bought 
one, I set it up, and it worked great - the IMAP client really is nice, 
if you haven't seen it.

Then the boss bought one, and of *course* I ran into a problem with that 
one...it wouldn't send mail. I started troubleshooting with one of 
Apples reps, and they were surprisingly helpful, and we eventually (took 
about 2 hours) nailed it down to a character in his password that the 
iPhone didn't like... we enforce strong (assigned) passwords, and I 
think it was one of the squiggle bracket characters that was the 
problem. Anyway, changed that and it works great - IMAP over SSL, smtp 
using TLS, sent messages go straight to the Sent folder (no configuring 
necessary), all folders available without any configuring - it 'just 
worked' - and no, I'm not an apple fanboy... ;)

Thanks for your insight...
