Unpacking the 32GB iPhone 3GS

Well, I finally got around to playing with my iPhone some today. I managed to get it connected to my wifi network which isn't simple because the security on my network isn't necessarily foolproof, but I use a strong key, don't broadcast the SSID, and I use MAC address filtering. Not perfect, but not just a driveby type of crack, either.

So, I managed to get the iPhone connected to my wireless network, for what that's worth.

Then, I configured it to read my email, but not without some new issues popping up. It seems as though my iphone is capable of reading my email and delivering me the annoying, meaningless winmail.dat file that Microsoft is so proud of. But it causes errors for my Outlook account. Now, Outlooks says the following:

'Your mailbox is temporarily unavailable because another e-mail message is being delivered to it or another mail application is accessing it. The server responded:

Task - 'Receiving' reported error (0x8004210E) : 'Your mailbox is temporarily unavailable because another e-mail message is being delivered to it or another mail application is accessing it. The server responded: -ERR mailbox locked by another client, please wait'

So, this is pretty painful and it sucks in a big way. Not sure how I'll get around this without setting up another account and mirroring my email to the second account. Hmmm.
