Hi

I want to link my iphone up with my work email (Outlook 2003).

How do I find out what my Microsoft Exchange Server name is?

thanks

It's best you contact your IT department or ask someone knowing in your company what the details would be. Alternatively, poke around in the Outlook settings and see if you can find the details you need.

OWA is Outlook Web Access normally used by Exchange to allow browser access to the mail server via an ActiveX webapp. The iPhone is looking to make a native connection to Exchange as if it were an Outlook client app. But then again your IT may use that particular name for both access methods (it's all done by TCP port).
