ActiveSync with BPOS issue
ActiveSync with BPOS issue
- I am working to setup my WM6.1 based device and I am having an issue where I followed the full instructions to setup a sync relationship with mail.microsoftonline.com and everything looks good until it actually performs the sync. At that point I am brought to a login type window that wants me to log into OWA light. It displays the radio buttons for choosing a public or private computer, the OWA light checkbox is filled and greyed, and I have a username/pw fields that I fill in. I correctly fill these in and hit [Log On]. At this point it thinks for a moment then prompts me for credentials again.
It seems to not be authenticating properly. I double checked all of the instructions and everything looks correct.
Thank you,
Ryker

- Issue resolved.
Resolution: I changed the server field from mail.microsoftonline.com to red001.mail.microsoftonline.com and it worked the first time. It seems there might be an issue here that someone needs to look at as the mail.microsoftonline.com site did not work at all.
I might suggest adding this to the how-to.

- Here is the active sync log. It doesn't really tell you much more than I had to cancel the sync when I got into the login loop.
