    *Once Mobility Pack is setup on your device, new contacts will by default be added to the Mobility Pack/GroupWise address book. This means that if you ever remove Mobility Pack, these contacts will be removed from the device. If you prefer, you can specify to have the contact added to your device address book rather than GroupWise.

    *If you have an IMAP account setup using the same email address as your Mobility account (i.e. jdoe@company.com for Mobility and jdoe@company.com for IMAP), the iPhone will automatically send mail for the Mobility account out of the IMAP account.  Some people using Mobility might be tempted to do this for downloading HTML mail.  The fix for this is to turn off the IMAP account in the iPhone account settings any time it is not actually being used.  Alternatively, you could make the IMAP account another valid ID for your GroupWise account such as jane.doe@company.com.  The issue only occurs when both the IMAP and Mobility accounts have the exact same email address defined.

    *If your LDAP password expires, a message will be displayed on the device indicating that the user name or password is incorrect.  If you change your password expiration time (perhaps you're on the road and don't have a way to change your password so you call the help desk and have them extend your password expiration time), the device will continue to display the incorrect password message.  A dialog may be displayed asking for the password but even typing in your password (the same password because it hasn't really changed) will still continue to fail.  You may also receive a message that the device failed to connect to the server.  It seems as though the iOS keeps some sort of state where it will not attempt to use a password that it has received a failure for.  To get around this, you can go to the account settings on the device and (1) for iOS v3.x, simply tap the password field (so that the cursor is in the field) and then exit the account settings (you don't need to make any changes in the edit field) or (2) for iOS v4.x, re-enter the same password in the password field and tap Done.  This will cause the device to once again send the requests to the Mobility server.
