Want my work outlook email on iphone

I am going crazy trying to figure out how to get my work email from outlook to show up on my iPhone without having to go through webmail. My IT guy has told me that it can't be done without some expensive pc. of equipment (something they do have for the Blackberry), but if I was able to figure out how to get my calendar items pushed from outlook to ical from gmail, shouldn't there be something similar out there to allow me to get my outlook email, too?

17" MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Add account...Exchange
Enter you logon details and in the server url section, put in the first section of the url that you log on to webmail with i.e webmail.company.com
The domain is the line that you normally can't see, when you log onto your PC in the morning...click on the details link on your logon page to see it or ask IT
Password and username is your webmail logon p/w and username.

The iPhone will ask if you want to try and connect without security...say yes.

If it asks if you want to keep contacts on your phone, say "keep on phone".

That will give you Contacts, E-mail and Calendar all on your phone. You can turn each one on or off as you please and you can stop using the Google calendar if you want to, becasue you'll be dealing directly with the Exchange Server using Outlook Web Access.
CAlendar and e-mail will take a few minutes to update.

Push can be turned on in the accounts section on the phone as normal

Ta da!

It is an oversimplification - there are other settings that have to be enabled in Exchange (server side) in order for it to work.

That tutorial is assuming that your IT department allows OTA syncing of devices and has set up the server accordingly.

Well, my friends, it looks as if this journey has come to an end, and I am officially giving up this quest. I thank you all (David -- you especially) for every word of wisdom and guidance. I will not be forwarding my outlook emails to another gmail account--just found out that it's against my company's policy so it's back to webmail for me! TTFN -- Good weekend all...

Hi...I seem to be having the same issues as PR Girl and have tried EVERYTHING to integrate mail on IPhone through OWA (I get all of the same errors). I know my IT group doesn't have it locked down because it works perfectly on my personal blackberry (push mail through OWA). Can someone who has OWA working on an IPhone provide a detail of all of the settings/steps that made it work?? thanks much!
