[MacTUG] Mac email: no choice for Exchange 2010

[Steve Hellyer]

Select Exchange 2007 that is unless your supporting (have turned on IMAP on the exchange server).
Basically it just the method we discover the server and ports used. Exchange 2010 doesn't change anything in that way.

Note may only work internally.  If you wanted email access outside university/company you exchange server might be firewalled.
This is where ActiveSync protocol comes in to play or use of standards based IMAP.

Really depends on what the IT policy is for access to server in and out of the local LAN.

For example UOIT blocks all access and you have to VPN into University LAN to gain access to University servers. Exception is made for ActiveSync Devices like Apple iOS device, Windows Mobile devices and Android (2.1+) devices and separate server for BlackBerry BES server.

Cheers,
Steve
