Deploying Windows Mobile Devices (XPA) with Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 SP2

[PiqueABoo]

I've done Exchange 2003 syncing for a variety of WM versions via ActiveSync or via wireless from anywhere on the net and it's a bit fiddly. Key things were: Rearranging a vdir in IIS and a cert with external FQDN, CA on PDAs and proxy exceptions on PDAs.

If it's just internal I'd do all the same stuff, except I'd leave the IIS cert alone.

lovely and easy, add an exchange email account and use the webmail address. set to sync when items arrive, voila!.(may not work with orange!)

Do you mean Direct Push may not work with Orange? Could you elaborate please? I'd like to setup a Nokia e61i with Exchange 2003SP2 on Orange.

sure, orange for some reason wont work with ssl which is generally how owa is set up, for the life of me i cant remmeber how i did it but you have to create a virtual dir that doesn't use ssl.

Oh... that could be a problem.
I've tried OMA on my personal Orange HTC phone over SSL and that seems to be ok.

Do you mean this issue for single server installations of Exchange with forms/SSL. If so, I've followed method 2 and created a new vdir which Exchange uses internally for OMA. Thanks
