exchangeicon_bigger Don’t believe this is that recent news, but just learned about it and thought I would share as I think it could be quite useful for many enterprise scenarios..

This is a public website that can be used to troubleshoot Exchange server connectivity issues. Originally written by a Microsoft Escalation Engineer and continually updated.

You can test such things Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) issues, including Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 5 w/MSFP, Windows Mobile 6.1 clients with AutoDiscover, Outlook RPC over HTTP (Outlook Anywhere), Outlook 2007 and AutoDiscover and even inbound SMTP. The tool will give you a nice detailed report that you can drill down into and research where any failure might be.

It is accessed from here: https://www.TestExchangeConnectivity.com.

This could be very useful in testing your Exchange configuration and setup before you have Windows Mobile clients to access your environment. Validation of certificates and which Windows Mobile versions are supported is also included!
