Mail for Exchange not working
 

Hi All,

could anybody help me with MfE on my N900 (PR1.3)?

Problem: app 14 days ago "something happened" (not in my phone) and MfE stopped working. It writes me "Invalid host address for Exchange server". (Exchange 2003)

I tried to delete my account from the phone but it is not possible to make the new one. While setting the server address, MfE writes again and again the same error (invalid host address...).

Everything worked pretty well before.

Would anyone have any suggestions?

Thanx.

PM

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

Have you tried pinging the server to see if it's alive?

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

Yes, the server is alive, MfE works with S60 and iPhone but not with Maemo. Works also with the web browser interface, but not with MfE... I really don't know where could be the problem.

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

Anyone with the same problem?

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

It's not the same problem, but different symptoms.

MfE stopped working a while ago.
After updated to PR1.3 it still worked ok, but suddenly it stopped.
I tried to re-create the account in Modest, but didn't work.
Now I'm on CSSU, and it still doesn't work.

When I'm creating the account, after the first screen where email, username, password, and domain is entered, it remains there forever.

Looking at the logs, it repeats the same loop over and over again.
I deleted (moved) the contacts database, just in case it was corrupted, but it still gets stuck at the same point.

Some logs excerpt:

(Then it loops again)


And this is a more recent debug log of activesync startup after normal booting.
Just in case any of you could see something suspicious.

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

I am having the same issue... no solutions so far :( Not able to move past the user/password screen... Once click on "Next" button... it keeps waiting and never comes back... couldn't find any answer for it in any posts...

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

Mine never worked due to lack of provisioning on N900. If your exchange server raised security requirements with provisioning, your N900 will never connect. That is my biggest peeve about this phone!!!!

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
 

Have you tried the troubleshooting steps in the Mail for Exchange FAQ?

Re: Mail for Exchange not working

Re: Mail for Exchange not working
