I want to configure an account on my iPhone to use an Outlook Web Access server. I don't know the server name. Is it possible to find the server name based on the OWA login webpage's URL?
Here is an example of Outlook Web Access logon URL:
It would be great if someone can demonstrate how to find the server address using the website address above.

I think you guys give the correct server name for the example.
However, when I use the method as you suggested, I can't configure my email on iPhone successfully.
The website that I log in to my email is like:
After I logged in to the Outlook Web Acces, I click "Options" -> "About".
And I found the Outlook Web Access host address which is in the form like:
This seems to be different from the example since yyyyyyy-webmail seems not a formal url, right?
On iPhone, when I chose "Email, Contact, Calander" -> "Add Account" -> "Microsoft Exchange", I entered the email account and password and fill the server as yyyyyyy-webmail. However, I cannot connect to my ac.
Moreover, I want to mention that I have to first log in to my institution's website and then log in to my Outlook Web Application.
Is there any mistake I make?
Thanks for all helps!

A server will respond by removing everything from owa and on, and not using https:// either.
So the server address will become: email.jwu.edu
You should be able to setup email on your iPhone if the administrators have enabled access for it.
2The server address is in the link you quoted in your question.
If you enter the above adress in your browser you will see:
JWU has a help page on how to configure your phone:
Short answer is:
- Settings
- Mail, Contacts, Calendars
- Exchange
- On Email field, Enter your jwu e-mail address
- Enter Password
- In Description, give a short name for this account
It should just work with that. That's how our Exchange server is configured.
