I'm reading up on the autoconfiguration option for the Equinox mobile app. I see that it works similar to a hardphone hitting a 46xx.settings file, but it first requests an email address for config. I don't have any voice services associated with our email accounts... where do I start with that?

The users will have two options, enter the URL to the config file, or enter their email address.
There is no association with their email accounts. The Equinox client uses the domain name in their email address to run a series of DNS lookups to determine the URL.
Example: Rather than having the user enter in the URL, the user simply enters user@example.com.
