Maybe it's a matter of two different protocols, one requiring a VPN, one
not.
You could perhaps try a sniffer to check that out. Where to place the
sniffer could be complicated though.

Are you quite sure that your iPhone isn't using some sort of VPN?
On my Android phone, I need a VPN client to access my work mail, but I
install it once and forget about it; it doesn't require me to enter my
password more than once.

Hi Michael,
Thanks again for your reply. I've tried using SMTP with TLS. And again it works
with the VPN turned on but it still won't work with the VPN turned off. For
some reason I don't understand, it simply won't instantiate the
SMTP/SMTP_SSL/IMAP4/IMAP4_SSL objects at all and will hang fore
Your phone may be using TLS on the normal IMAP port (143). Or, are
you sure your phone is using IMAP and not active sync?

Hi Michael,
Thanks for your reply. I did try port 993. I know that port generally
works for me, as I can access the Gmail IMAP/SMTP server using SSL. It
also works for that other Exchange server but only when the VPN is
turned on.
Somehow my iPhone works fine without a VPN, as long as it uses SSL
That method uses the default port 993. Can you connect to that port
at all from your computer? For example, try using a telnet client.

Hi,
I'm able to connect to an Exchange server via SMTP and IMAP from my
iPhone using SSL and without using a VPN. So I would expect to be able
to do the same from my computer using Python.
However, the following hangs and times out on my computer when I'm not
connected to the VPN:
>>> import ima
