I hope Certificates are in place also your account is enabled for active sync I would ask you to check below couple of things from server end. http://msexchangeteam.com/archive/2007/05/30/439568.aspx Vinod

Hi VINOD, Thanks for reply, in the OWA i can see the 'mobile device' tab in the options field so i assume activesync is enabled? The list is empty though, cause i am having errors with syncing?

Hi RockSlow, Thanks for reply, i had did a test in the URL on 'Exchange ActiveSync' with 'Synchronize All Items in Inbox folder' and 'Ignore Trust for SSL' checkbox checked,an ot wentthru successfully.However when i did a test withonly 'Synchronize All Items in Inbox folder' checkbox checked i go theerror as below:Attempting to Resolve the host name mail.domain.com in DNS.Host successfully ResolvedAdditional DetailsIP(s) returned: x.x.x.x
Testing TCP Port 443 on host mail.domain.com to ensure it is listening/open.The port was opened successfully.

You may be missing required intermediate certificates, See KB 927465 for more details.I have tried looking in KB927465, but the resolutions are talking about adding the intermediate cert, i am usingMS CA.On the mobile device,howdo i 'Ignore Trust for SSL'?Thanks inadvance!

Hi,Check out the below article to resolve the error..This issue occurs because an intermediate certification authority (CA) certificate is not present on the device or on the Exchange Server server with which you are synchronizing.http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927465
