If you are a network administrator and don't already use it, Microsoft has a fantastic tool available for troubleshooting Exchange remote connectivity issues. The tool, aptly named the "Microsoft Exchange Remote Connectivity Analyzer" is available
here. I have found myself on the ugly side of troubleshooting a few thorny issues with Exchange lately, and have been making a lot of use of this free tool. You can test ActiveSync (which is what I've used it the most for) as well as Outlook connectivity, Internet Mail and Exchange remote access services. The error messages are clear and make it remarkably easy to nail down where the issues lie. It may not give you the exact answer, but it does tell you just where to look and that has sure saved me a lot of time. Check it out!
