Another fella was having the same problem. Here's his fix:

This has been bugging me for a week or more. I finally solved it this morning! The key to solving it is permissions and directory security in IIS for /exchange-oma.

I was getting lots of different events in the error log Event ID 3005,3031 and 3012 and this put me on a wild goose chase for a while. In the end it was Microsoft KB article 817379 that solved it - Exchange ActiveSync and Outlook Mobile Access errors occur when SSL or forms-based authentication is required for Exchange Server 2003.

You must turn off SSL on the exchange-oma virtual directory AND enable ONLY Windows and Basic Authentication. My settings had SSL active (because that's really what I want for Exchange remote access) and for some reason Anonymous permissions and Windows authentication.

Anyway, happy now. I have my HP IPaq synchronising, now for the Nokia E61 Smartphone.....

I am not guaranteeing a solution here but I hope this helps!

BTW - I am running Windows 2003 Server SP1 with Exchange 2003 SP2 all updated. The KB article said to run the Internet and Email wizard to solve this on SBS but this did not, I had to do it manually!
