So, to sync two exchange servers, put this in the device’s registry:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\En ableNonLocalCrossPollination]= (DWORD) 1This key will most probably be there already, but if it is, its value
will be 0. If so, change it to 1.
Soft reset, then, setup activesync ON THE DEVICE (If you try setting up
on the PC, it will still fail).


I've tested this, and the added part above is the most important. Being that, whoever wrote this original article had no frickin clue what they were talking about, nor did they ever try what they were actually writing would work.

IMPORTANT: What that registry settings does is allow syncing a single device between MORE THEN ONE PC...NOT more then one Exchange server. IN NO WAY does it enable/disable any ability to sync more then one Exchange server on the phone itself. It only represents how the device syncs with a PC.

You ALWAYS have had the ability to sync to more then one Exchange account, as long as you setup the email portion through the wizard LAST. You can only use one folder (email, contacts, calendar, notes) on each of up to four ActiveSync accounts.
