Hi Shawner. Don't feel dense! Exchange servers take a bit of getting used to and their is no way of just magically knowing how to use them. Actually, they can be a little idiosyncratic!

I am not personally using DeniaL's service so I can only offer general pointers. I imagine DeniaL may post a specific answer for you later on. But as this is kindly offered as a free service by DeniaL (who is surely very busy actually making a living!) you may need to be wait a little bit for a reply about the Exchange server. In the meantime here are some suggestions based on my experience on about 4 different Exchange servers:

Having downloaded a certificate does not itself fill in any settings for you. It would just be a way of the server and your device determining if they can trust one another when they meet! You have to put in the server address or, indeed, your device will have no idea where on the Internet to look for DeniaL's server.

The Server Address is usually the same address you would use to access your account through a web browser using Outlook Web Access. There is sometimes a very slight variation.

Examples:

mail2web Exchange service:

OWA address - http://exchange.mail2web.com

Activesync Server Address - mobile.exchange.mail2web.com

1and1 Exchange Hosting:

OWA address - http://exchange.1and1.com

Activesync Server Address - exchange.1and1.com

SSL is usually required and this has been the case on every Exchange server I have used. It happens that I have never needed to download a certificate (although when I have first logged on my handheld has sometimes displayed a message saying the Exchange server needs is to enforce security policies on my handheld - so that may be have some kind of equivilence). Anyway, it is pretty much for sure that you need to check the SSL box.

Domain field:

Examples - mail2web: ad2. 1and1: EXCHANGE

My best guess for DeniaL's servers is the domain may be "getztek". Please note that is only a guess. It is usually without any dot com because it means domain like in the sense of a virtual private network or a workgroup, not an Internet domain name.

Sometimes a user name has to be entered in the format exchange\"username" and sometimes your complete email address, possibly even the approved email alias associated with your account, may be used.

Finally, I would suggest you set the last item to "replace item on server". Assuming you have nothing on the server yet and lots on your handheld... you do not want the server to wipe over your handheld's data!

Finally, to get direct push going you need to set your ActiveSync schedule to "As Items Arrive". Also Direct Push will need to be on in your CommManager.

Hope this helps and, again, please bear in mind these are general pointers. I have no authority to speak for DeniaL, nor experience of this particular server.

BTW, it may be worth mentioning to get the most out of an Exchange server Outlook 2003 is required. Particularly if one wishes to keep all data in sync between a PC and the Server and your handheld. You do not have to have Outlook 2003 to use Exchange, but it is needed to get at all the features. I mention this because it seems many devices still ship with Outlook 2002. For instance, I was quite surprised when I recently bought my HTC Trinity, unlocked and factory fresh, it only came with Outlook 2002. A bit strong I felt, seeing as the device cost as much as some laptops, but there you go!

Out of interest, when you say you downloaded a certificate, where did you put it/how did you install it?

All the best. :D
