Hi all,

Is anyone here using there iPhone email with an Exchange server??

If so, can you tell me what is normal behaviour when your Active
Directory password changes? I dont have an iPhone, but have been asked
the question on a site where 2 people do.

Their passwords change every 45 days, and I would assume that if it
does the iPhone simply asks for a right password as soon as it gets an
auth failure???

If not, do you just have to reset via the email settings?

Gavin.

Yup. Coincidentally I was demoing this just a few minutes ago.

It just asks you for a new password. I'm not sure exactly what triggers
it (probably when it does a background check), but you certainly don't
need to have an app running to get the prompt. It looks like an iTunes
Store password prompt.

This works whether you're just syncing email, just calendars, or both.
No experience with contacts, though.

You are correct.

Thanks to both - I have just replicated it on my Touch on a WIFI
connection for screenshot purposes.

Cheers!
