Using MSOffice365 at work.
Standards-compliant it is not. IMAP works but limited to
vanilla email. Everything else is tunneled through https:
and their own "standard" conventions.
Thankfully there are some administrations on the Continent
who have gone OpenSource, and thereby allowed a product like
DavMail to be created (see http://davmail.sourceforge.net)
It converts "standard" MS for email, address books,
calendaring into Standards. Maybe a tad slow, but works
quite well.
Cheers,

Not enabling IMAP is a sysadmin issue, not a MS issue. For regular consumers
modifying technical settings is unreasonable, but if you're maintaining a
mailserver changing a default is hardly unreasonable.
As for buggy - we've had no problems with it (activesync however is near
unusable on a couple of galaxy SIIs some employee's have, which is why we
investigated IMAP on exchange to begin with!), but YMMV of course.
You won't be syncing contacts/random MS proprietry stuff, but really that's more
wanting the features in the MS protocol then simply interacting with windows
servers.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
