Yep, my iPhone setup was the easiest I've done yet. Took about 15 seconds, just long enough to type everything in. You do have to accept the cert if it's self signed (ours was). I helped one person out who had a strange exchange front end and his phone asked for the server name. Mine did not. Again his setup was fast even with asking for the additional info.

Nothing 'really amiss' here. Just have to import the CA Cert. ________________________________ From: Tim Vander Kooi [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 12:19 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: IPhone 3g <Nightmare> If setting up a Windows Phone (the new name for Windows Mobile from what I hear) takes more than entering a URL, a user name and a password then you've got something amiss in your systems. Should take around 45 seconds, depending on the length of those fields and the speed of your thumbs.

I setup my HTC in under a minute (actually timed it). So those iPhones must be wicked fast. ;-) On Wed, Jun 24, 2009 at 11:44 AM, Sam Cayze <[email protected]> wrote: Ironically, our iPhone was far easier to connect to our Exchange Server than our Windows Mobile Phones. ________________________________ From: Fogarty, Richard R CTR USA USASOC [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 24, 2009 11:42 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: IPhone 3g <Nightmare> Only if you have the app for it.

I believe the cure for cancer will be realized before I can get this "rock" to send and receive e-mail from our Exchange server. The folks at Apple were little or no help. They sent me links to various docs, which I found useless. Does anyone know the "trick" to getting an iPhone 3g to connect to an Exchange server? (2003). The server resides on our network, on the friendly side of our SonicWall firewall. I guess I'm spoiled with my Blackberry, which has a 2 minute setup process. Thanks a ton! Mark A.
