I just found this out through apple. It's especially critical for those with brand new devices. When you setup a new email account, do not use exchange. Set it up under gmail. What happened, google disabled you the ability to use Microsoft exchange. I found this out as I was trying to set mine up and it wouldn't let me. So set up your new gmail accounts, where you have the drop down for Microsoft, aol, yahoo, select google, and you'll be good. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VIPhone" Google Group.
