No, don't believe it does.

Does the iphone require ISA?  

 

The iphone enterprise guide reads:

 Exchange ActiveSync Setup

Network configuration

* Check to ensure port 443 is open on the firewall. (Note: If your
company allows Outlook Web Access, port 443 is most likely already open
on your firewall.)

* On the Front-End Server, verify that a server certificate is installed
and enable SSL for the Exchange ActiveSync virtual directory (require
basic SSL authentication).

* On the Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server,
verify that a server certificate is installed and update the public DNS
to properly resolve incoming connections.

* On the ISA Server, create a Web listener as well as an Exchange Web
client access publishing rule according to Microsoft documentation. This
is a necessary step in enabling Exchange ActiveSync. 

* For all firewalls and network appliances, set the Idle Session Timeout
to 30 minutes (check your Microsoft Exchange documentation for
alternative heartbeat and timeout intervals).

Apple has great directions on their website (on the right side bar of
the iPhone page). Note that the iPhone will also work seamlessly with
the remote wipe feature, etc. Other than the general buggy-ness of the
iPhone 2.0 software, the continued lack of cut-copy-paste, the lack of
tasks (zenbe is a decent substitute), and the fact that it won't work at
all with our ChMS, it's nice. (The Exchange Mail portion is an 8 out of
10, Calender is a 7 out of 10, and Contacts are a 4 out of 10 because
they make the whole address book thing slow & cause random reboots.)

Okay, I've gotten off of the original topic, sorry, I'm just hatin' my
iPhone this week.

To get an iPhone working with Exchange:

1. Set up OWA with an SSL certificate.  Don't use a wildcard SSL
certificate - ActiveSync on Windows Mobile devices doesn't handle
wildcard SSL certs properly.  Make sure that OWA is accessible
externally.

2. Go into the settings in Exchange Administrator for the user in
question and make sure their account is allowed to use Mobile Devices
(each account can have OWA, Mobile Device use, IMAP, and POP enabled or
disabled).

3. Make sure the iPhone has version 2.0 installed.  The 3G iPhones come
with this out of the box, whereas the older iPhones need to be upgraded.
This is a free upgrade for anyone with the iPhone, and it's a $20 or so
upgrade for anyone with the iPod touch.

4. Set up the iPhone with Exchange.  It's very straighforward - you add
a new email account to the iPhone, tell it that it's an exchange server,
then give it the server name, username, and password, and you're done.
