Re: Active Sync - Exch Server behind Firewall



Not much is needed to sync directly with exchange 2003. Here
(http://www.geekzone.co.nz/content.asp?contentid=4048) is a great writeup on
it by Mauricio Freitas. On the firewall side all you need to open is port
80 if you're not using ssl(not recommended) or port 443 for use with ssl.
