Anyway turned on IMAP on the exchange server, made sure the users account was allowed to use IMAP, entered the OMA server details in the IPhone but no go, user account and password but its not synching 
Any ideas? |
Not with Exchange 2007 but yes with Exchange 2003
You need to make sure the IMAP port you are using (143 for standard IMAP) is opened on the firewall and pointing to your Exchange server.
A quick test, on the Exchange server run "telnet localhost 143" from a command prompt.
that will prove IMAP is running
If that works then from outside the LAN try to telnet to port 143 on your MX record i.e "telnet mail.mydomain.co.nz 143"
There are several good guides online.
N.B - I'd only suggest using normal IMAP as a proof of concept. You should really think about secure IMAP (port 993) using certificates for production environments.
