OK, a few things
1) on the Treo, VersaMail, there is a setting I believe in the VersaMail app and it says Exchange Server and you input your companies OWA (Outlook Web Access Server's name / public ip address). Is this Active Sync, I am not sure, I don't think so.
Treo's running Windows Mobile, use Active Sync and it works just fine, input your companies OWA (Outlook Web Access Server's name, public ip address).
2) I think the Mossberg reference to the iPhone working with Exchange, by having IT flip a setting, is the turning on of IMAP thing we have been hearing.
This is most cases will not be sufficient or happen, many IT depts. will not do it, you will have to use OWA WebMail in Safari, not a great solution at all
I don't think Mossberg's reference to Exchange functionality is referring to this Active Sync licensing news we are hearing about.
Also, the way I have seen Active Sync used is in conjunction with the OWA server, a public server, so these users don't ever have to hit the actual Exchange server, internally, a security measure, etc.
