Exchange Active Sync with Treo 650

[sjkted]

Hello All,

I am trying to set up some Treo 650s to sync with an Exchange 2003 Server (Windows 2003 Server). The Exchange server is a standalone (I do not have multiple Exchange servers). I am trying to connect through port 80 without SSL.

Inside and outside of the office, I am able to connect to OMA and Exchange OWA and login without problems. I have verified that the users are set up for OMA. When I set up the VersaMail account and test the account settings, the test is successful.

On Versamail, I am getting the error message "There was a problem syncing messages. (0006) HTTP/1.1 403. Request Forbidden. On the Exchange server, I am logging event ID 3005 -- Unexpected Exchange mailbox server error HTTP Status Code: 409.

I have researched this problem and already tried turning off SSL and adding another virtual directory to IIS without SSL. I have found other references to a problem with front-end / bridgehead servers which is not the case here.

How can I troubleshoot this?

Thanks,

emilio

I had the exact same problem. I had to allow NT authentication on the OMA virtual directory. For my particular case, I was not using SSL, so I change the Treo to use port 80.
