Ok, I've got AD domain of FOO.LOCAL Users email addresses are test@foo.com however.
So, when on a mobile device one must put in the email address followed by password then the device tries autodiscover.
The problem is that autodiscover.foo.com resolves however the UID of test@foo.com is not a valid login - it must be test@foo.local so autodiscover fails.
but, foo.local is not a valid internet domain... It appears I have a catch-22 here.

Is there any way for me to work around this?

Ok, I think I figured it out.
Add a UPN of foo.com to AD Domains and trusts. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/243629
Then, change the users under "account" tab to use the new UPN.

That's not really needed. As long as you've set up correct DNS records for autodiscover, a user should be able to log into an account in an AD domain that's not publicly accessible (.local).

Do you have your Tek-Tips.com Swag? I've got mine!

Stop by the new Tek-Tips group at LinkedIn.

As long as autodiscover.foo.com resolves to the OWA endpoint correctly.
