E71 and mail exchange in Dubai

Has anyone successfully connected the E71 via exhange, I have had two IT guys try for several hours to no avail.
Is there a specific problem with Etisalat service.

I downloaded MFE for My nokia E71, and as i am using Microsoft Exchangelabs.com as my exchange server. unfortunately MFE is not working, i mailed a couple of MS technical support and the final remark was
(the implementation of the Exchange ActiveSync is not compatible with Exchange Labs. For example, E71 may not support wild card certificate (*.exchangelabs.com) Exchange Labs uses for ActiveSync.)
I installed Roadsync to check on the exchangelabs.com service, It works smothly. However I would prefer to Use MFE. Could any one help me on this issue.

Using Mail and Windows Exchange Server 2003

HI I have just set up a server using windows server 2003 and I also installed exchange 2003 on it as well. I have a domain which forwards to my server so I can set up my own mail addresses on exchange which connects to outlook. My windows pc is connected to the domain and the email works fine, no probs. I would like my mac book (tiger) to connect to the exchange server as well for my wife to get emails using an email address I have set up for her. Myself and my wife are new to macs so its slow going at the moment but I am persistant. When setting up the mail using the exchange option it asks for the incoming and outgoing mail server which confuses me as exchange doesnt use these as far as I am aware. can anyone offer any hep at all as I would really like this sorting.
thanks for any help offered

Hi
Without any further details regarding how you have set up your exchange mail server as well as your private network its going to be difficult to help you. In any rate you are the one who has configured the exchange/windows server so I would imagine all of the information regarding the mail server you should know?
For example if you have enabled webmail on the exchange server then you should know that. If you have not enabled it then there is nothing you need put in the relevant field.
How well internal DNS queries resolve for your server name to its IP address will depend on how well you have configured internal DNS Services. Only you would know why you can use the IP address and not the name, or the name and not the IP address. Perhaps you should review this. Typically you would match the external MX Record with an internal one, that way DNS names can resolve internally as well as externally to their relevant IP addresses. This all depends on how you have configured Exchange mail server. For example you could be using the POP connector feature. Again this is something you should know as you are the one who has configured it.
also when going through the mail setup it wont connect to the
incoming mail sever using the dns info but it will to the outgoing
mail server using the same info.
This could mean that internal DNS Services are not set up and that outbound mail is actually using your ISP's mail server rather than your internal server.
I'm not sure where you are getting Port 993 from? The default ports for POP (inbound) and SMTP (outbound) are 110 for POP and 25 for SMTP. All that is required is a Port forwarding/firewall rule for those ports that point to the internal IP address of your mail server. Provided your domain's MX record is pointing to the fixed external IP address configured in your router at your location then mail should flow in and out. Again this all depends on how you have configured your domain and mail server to send and receive mail. Again only you would know that.
If you launch MS/DOS (PC) prompt or terminal (Mac) and telnet to the server's internal IP address for port 25 it should tell you if it is accepting mail. You can use the same thing for port 110. The command would look something like this:
telnet 192.168.1.1 25
You should see something like this:
Trying 192.168.1.1...
Connected to whateveryouhavecalledit.
Escape character is '^]'.
220 yourdomain ESMTP
If you configure Apple Mail for a POP account then it should work using the internal IP address of your mail server for both inbound and outbound mail, as long as the account configured on your mail serverr is configured for a POP mail account.
Most Mail Server's today will offer a mail service using IMAP accounts (this is in addition to the other methods offered) which can be accessed simply using a web browser. In my view this is preferable to POP accounts as (a) you don't need a separate mail application (b) no mail is ever stored locally, its all kept on the server (c) you don't even need your own pc/mac to access your mail. As long as you know 3 bits of information you can send/receive mail anywhere in the world just as long as you have access to any computer that has access to the internet.
Hope this helps, Tony

I have 4 email accounts in apple Mail. My mail is sending from the wrong account. even on "reply" it sends from a different account. I have 3 gmail accounts and one exchange server account. I choose which account to send from and it still sends from the same gmail account. Help.

I HAD two accounts because of this problem. I completely removed the problem account from the Apple Mail client. Guess what is happening?? That's right - Mail is still sending from the other account that no longer exists on my computer, and I have absolutely no idea how this is happening. This is incredibly frustrating. When a recipient chooses to reply to my message, quite often I won't get it now because it is going to the other account that has now been deleted from my system. COME ON APPLE!!! WHAT'S THE DEAL WITH THIS???

I am using an iPad and iPhone and have exchange as my email. Both will only collect mails when I am in the wifi of the office, and not when I am out and about. I can't seem to get a fix for it.

I lost my contacts and mail folders on my exchange server but they are still on my MAC. How can I resync?

I run both a MAC and a PC with two different mail clients Entourage vs. Outlook. I have never had a problem with the clients syncing with the Exchange server until I did an archive of all emails in outlook that were older than this year. Now some subfolders have disapeared on the PC and the Exchange server but still show up in Entourage. How can I resync Entourage to the Exchange and have Exchange server "accept" the Entourage folders as correct?
Also I use an Iphone and backup to the icloud. So why did my contacts disapear from the iphone and are not restored via icloud? The missing contacts also disapeared from exchange.
Iphone 4s ver 5.1.1
Exchange 2003
MacBook Pro OSX 10.5.x ( I think - since the finder->about this Mac button doesnt work)
Entourage 12.3.3
Thanks so much.

Microsoft Exchange Categories in iCal, Address Book and Mail

I work in a Microsoft environment with my MacBook Pro and would like to use iCal, Address Book and Mail as my default applications rather than Microsoft Oulook 2011, however, there is not support for the Microsoft Exchange Categories to be replicated into the various Apple applications. This results in my address book not to differentiate any longer from my contact categories stored on the Exchange server, nor my calendar. Categories can be created in iCal and other Apple applications but it then requires for the event or contact to be duplication "On my Mac" which makes me loose my synchronization with other systems. Any idea about to fix that?

Same issue here. I would love to migrate to iCal but the lack of support for categories is a limiting factor. Same applies to Contacts.

When will iCal and Mail on the Mac work as well with exchange as their IOS counterparts do on the iPad?

To get mail to access my exchange email I have to use a private smtp server as the passing in the settings for our actual exchnage server have never worked. But that does at least work. With iCal I have never been able to access my exchange calendar. It accepts the login and appears to connect but the calendar can never be refreshed so is non-functional.
Contrast that to my iPad where I just put in my email user and pwd (for the same account as above) and both mail and calendar are fully functional (or at least so far). This is appearently due to cal and mail on iPad using OWA for everything but fetching mail. Why oh why is this approach not taken on the mac?

John Galloway wrote:
OK, I'll bite. What are these "full desktop" facilities that you don't get on the iPad? (I have been using email for as long as its been around pretty much, but just started using email/cal on the iPad).
You're still missing the point. The iPad uses the same code for the mail and calander apps as the iPhone. So the code was already baked in when the iPad was released. Thus "simple" to have the iPad connect to Exchange 2003. Apple didn't start supporting Exchange the the OSX apps until after that and for whatever reason, decided to only go with the Exchange 2007 protocols. Different programs and different capabilities.
I have never seen the innards of OSX Mail or IOS Mail
Not necessary to see the code for the apps specifically. But if you've ever written any apps, particularly under a large bureaucratic environment where there are many cooks in the kitchen, you'd know what I meant when I said "...What you think can be "carried over" is a substantial rewrite to Mail and iCal. I'm not saying it's not possible, just that it ain't as simple as you think...."
What Apple product is competing with exchange server for email? Sure you can run an email service on OSX...
You've just answered the question. Apple does sell a email server product and they did have MobileMe, soon to be iCloud. Exchange is a competing product.
...but there is pretty much 0 corporate presence of Apple servers (servers not clients) as far as I know. And sure exchange 2003 is old hat, but what percentage of clients still connect to one?
And you know that "zero" figure for sure? Like you know for certain exactly how many (or little) Exchange 2003 servers are still in use? I never said that there were NO Exchange 2003 servers in use. (I have a client still on one, so I know for a fact that it is not zero.) My point was that Apple made a decision whether to spend the time, $$$ nd effort to add in an additional feature to their existing Mail and iCal OSX apps, which uses a different protocol, to a competing product, that is not a new product and is more than one version out and that already has a specific EOL date from the manufacturer (April 2014.) Again, I specifically state that it's not a technical reason that it can't be done. But if you don't understand that it's more likely to be that someone saw the ROI wasn't there, then you likely will never understand.
(You will, of course, want the last word. Please go ahead. I have already given you answers, regardless of your acceptance of their correctness.)

Apple Mail and MS Exchange server?

In a strange twist of fate, our new university President is a Mac guy (yeah!), but he is obligating all of us to put email and calendar software into MS Exchange server. Sadly, it means I will need to migrate 4 GB of emails from Apple mail to Entourage.
Does anyone know of a solution that will allow me to continue using Apple Mail?
I also favor NOW Up to Date & Contact for calendar and contacts. Any ideas on connectivity between Exchange server?
Thanks.
Intel iMac Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Rats! I just heard from our IT department. The reason Apple Mail is not supported is that it requires IMAP to be turned on. They claim that "IMAP passes passwords and mail in clear text which is a big security problem. Exchange natively sends all of its info in an encrypted manner. "
Is there a way to get Apple Mail to use Exchange Server without IMAP in a way that will get these security freakish IT folks to be happy?

Internal and External Mail Exchange servers server not communicating with IronPort

Hello Support Community,
I have setup external mail exchange server and an internal mail exchange server to test out ironport, those two are not communicating via IronPort neither are they both recieving eachothers sent messages in their inbox, i have setup a smart host in both of those servers to point to ironport but thats still of no help. I have two smtp routes setup as well one's recieving domain: dummy.local which is external and its destination host: softheon.local which is internal which means its smart host is pointing to ironport's data 1. Is there something that im missing which is not letting these two mail exchange servers connect to each other as well as connect with the ironport to catch the msgs being sent
thanks

Are you trying to relay through the appliance, or just email the appliance?
If trying to relay through the appliance, make sure the IP address of your exchange server is added to the RELAYLIST under the HAT (host access table) located under Mail Policies Tab - Host Access Table. Click on the RELAYLIST and add the IP - submit and commit changes.
If you are just trying to email the appliance, you may be getting dropped at the handshake level based on reputation (or lack thereoff).
From your exchange boxes, open up a command prompt and telnet to the ironport on port 25 and initiate a command line email.
So:
telnet IP-OF-IRONPORT 25 (hit enter, you should connect up and see the IronPort banner)
helo (type helo - from here you'll probably get dropped by the IronPort)
mail from: [email protected] (if you dont get dropped put in your email address)
rcpt to: [email protected] (put in the other email address)
data (type data and hit enter)
This is a test. (type anything, this is the message body)
. (when done typing, type a single . (period) and hit enter. The email should send if you got that far.
You most likely need to add the IP addresses of your exchagne boxes to the WHITELIST under the HAT to resolve any reputation issues from your test exchange boxes.

Chris

I have removed the ecp site from default site and attempting to rerun SP1 now. I do not have high hopes. :(

Hi,
Thanks for your response.
From the error description, you need to manually remove the ECP with IIS manager in both the Default Web Site and the Exchange Back End firstly. And then continue the upgrade to check the result.
Hope this can be helpful to you.
Best regards,

Exchange and mail.app

Has anyone had this issue with a MS Exchange server? On a Mac I am able to send mail out to any email address using Outlook Web Access but using the same exchange server with a POP account and Mail.app I cannot send mail outside the school district(@af.k12.wi.us). When I try, I get "The message could not be appended to the Outbox".
Is this a problem with the Exchange server setup or Mail.app account? How do I fix it?

We also use Intermedia.net and I've yet to get mail.app and Exchange to work together. The KB and support offer very little more than what you see posted here already. The "Mail for Mac OSX" are not even close to being accurate for our dedicated hosting plan (we don't have mail.domain.com type names).
Mail.app doesn't give you much to go on either... I plug in the information and it just never connects or never goes online. If I open up the Activity window I see it try and connect but then just drops the connection. No failed password or other error message.
Anyone else have any experience with Intermedia or success with Exchange?
