Kees, serious question:
What „every mobile mail-clients” do support ActiveSync? Please list
here, I’m curious to know.
I did not find any viable one anymore. Both Nine and BlueMail do not
count any longer as both are buggy.
The standard Gmail app sort of works but cannot be used if your SOGo
e-mail address happens to also
be your Google account’s e-mail address. And someone mentioned the
Outlook app for Android but
I could not get it working and it is also said to store credentials
and user data in Microsoft cloud – bad.
So, any other option? Which?
It works fine on Iphone and with gmail on Android, and that covers any
mobile device more or less. Thunderbird is working to support
ActiveSync, although I am notsure whether that includes
Thunderbird-mobile or not.
I have not run into the case where the sogo mail-address and the
google-account mail-address are the same. It's good to know that that is
not working.

Hi Quentin and team,
ActiveSync is great for mobile devices:
* Every mobile (mail-client) supports it
* Users go through one setup for mail, calendar and addressbooks,
i.e. user-friendly setup as well.
* From my perspective ActiveSync also allows for pre-authentication,
a poor-mans 2-factor authentication which is not possible with
regular imap/smtp mail.
* It is hard to replace because users have to get instructions how
to change the mail on their phones.
I hope you can revisit the decision to stop with ActiveSync as I find
it an easy, simple and relatively secure solution for external /
mobile email.

See my message to this list a couple of days ago about ActiveSync
apps for Android. I really also like
how ActiveSync works (e.g. only one account/connection to
configure in one single app for mail, calendar
and contacts). However, during the search for a suitable app I
could only learn that almost anyone
is abandoning it, even Microsoft.
We recently got the problem that BlueMail on Android which had
supported ActiveSync for a long time
did suddenly not work properly any longer due to its latest
update. That was the trigger why I searched
for an alternative. We had used Nine before BlueMail and when I
now checked Nine again I learned that
the vendor does no longer maintain it in favor of a new solution
which is a cloud based solution and
stores user data there.
So I could only decide to drop both of these and switch to
Thunderbird and DAVx5 on Android.
(We do not use iOS here. And we use Thunderbird on the Desktop,
anyway.)

Same here, we are using Nine because of the ability to import
S/MIME certificates within the app and it would be quite bad if we
would not be able to use it anymore.

Hello,
Have same problem, we use Nine (mail, calendar, contacts)
application in android mobile, and it uses active sync.
I ask Nine support and they answer actually for mobiles is not
planned MAPI over HTTP.

Hello !
I have seen that the activesync server will be replaced with MAPI
over HTTP. This is a big feature drop for all our customers. How
ist the plan from SOGo to connect mobile phones without the need
of additional apps or configuration in the future?
MAPI over HTTP is a feature that only is used from outlook. What
is with all other clients that preferred using Activesync ?
