The message moves to Deleted Items but no expunge. I know 1.1.1 was suppose to fix it but does anyone have this fixed expunge working with Exchange 2007?

Turns out that we have specified SMTP traffic to only a handful of IP's running back to an email filtering service we use. I can telnet port 25 internally, but when outside the network (ie - home, etc.) I cannot get to port 25. OWA is running fine, but that's all over SSL on port 443. Yes, we do have an SSL cert for our webmail address. I am also using SSL on, NTLM auth, and enter my username as username@domain Hope to be tweaking out the firewall once I get a few things squared away with this email filtering mumbo-jumbo. Will post back with progress. Thanks. I think I’ve pretty much nailed my problem down to our firewall.

Eventually, I have to use the carrier smtp to solve this issue. We have webmail running fine. I enter Both incoming and outgoing servers have SSL enable, 993 in this case. For incoming (this part works fine), webmail.mycompany.com mycompany\user password For outgoing (this is the problem), webmail.mycompany.com mycompany\user password Do I need to use webmail.mycompany.com:25 and disable SSL? I try it and it still gives me trouble. telnet to webmail.mycompany.com 25 and it responds. Do I need to allow relay in this case? Thx, I have trouble sending as well.

For incoming (this part works fine),
webmail.mycompany.com

For outgoing (this is the problem),
webmail.mycompany.com
mycompany\user

Do I need to use webmail.mycompany.com:25 and disable SSL? I try it and it still gives me trouble. telnet to webmail.mycompany.com 25 and it responds. Do I need to allow relay in this case?

Thx,

With the SP2 patch, it gives you up to 75gb in your information store... What exactly doesn't work? Receiving from or sending from the iPhone? Can you be more specific? /Wilson @jason

Seems I spoke too soon in regard to being able to send from my Macbook Pro when outside of our corporate network. I'm at home now and I cannot send messages from my Exchange account. Maybe this is a firewall issue, but then I don't understand why the Macbook will send while in the office but the iPhone will not (presumably with the same settings). Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Rats! Let me try to summarize ... I got an iPhone - yippie! I have a question regarding SEND functionality with Exchange (shocking, I know). I've setup iTunes to sync all of my email accounts to my iPhone. I have 3 ISP accounts and one Exchange account. On my Macbook Pro, the Exchange account works fine - bothing sending and receiving while connected inside or outside of our corporate network. On the iPhone, my Exchange account will only receive. I cannot send from inside or outside of our corporate network. I took a look at the Exchange mail account settings on the iPhone - they look OK. I even tried your recommendation of deleting the synced Exchange account on the iPhone and setting it back up manually. No luck! I noticed on the iPhone that the SMTP is setup to use port 587. I haven't seen this port number in your documentation, or any other documentation I've found on the web. Do you know what this is? Also, my SMTP is setup to use SSL and NTLM authentication. We have an Active Directory environment. I am the IT Manager. Please let me know if there's anything else you suggest I check in order to get this sending issue resolved. Thanks.
