ActiveSync mail.example.com auto auto auto
Note
ActiveSync is not a complete Microsoft Exchange replacement. We recommend IMAP for most clients. ActiveSync can be useful for e.g. Android.
We recommend using SSL/TLS and plain
as authentication mechanisms (no passwords will be transferred plain text, since we use a TLS encrypted connection).
If your email client asks you for IMAP Path Prefix
, you can leave this value empty. All relevant folders are located directly in the root directory of the mailbox.
