iOS mail (Exchange) program does not connect

[akinzler]

I setup OpenVPN Connect 1.0.1 on iOS 6.13 and community OpenVPN server 2.3.2. Everything works perfectly with Safari (on iOS) and ping (on iOS). But somehow the iOS mail program (we are using it with Exchange) does not even try to connect. Using wireshark I see no traffic at all. Wheels are spinning in the mail app but it is not doing anything.

I cannot believe I am the first to encounter. ovpn for the client is:
