• Outlook 2013 for Windows works well with EAS.

• Below mobile devices works well with EAS, they will sync mails, calendars, contacts, tasks, memos/notes.

  • BlackBerry 10 devices
  • iOS devices (iPad, iPhone). Tested with iOS 8.1.3.
  • Android devices. Tested with OS v4.0.

• Apple Mail.app, and Outlook for Mac support EWS. But not EAS.

• Outlook 2010 for Windows supports MAPI.
• iRedMail-0.9.0 doesn't integrate OpenChange and Samba4 for native MAPI support, so SOGo groupware in iRedMail doesn't provide full support for Microsoft Outlook clients, Mac OS X Mail.app and all iOS devices, don't try to add your mail account as an Exchange account in these mail clients. You have to add separate POP3/IMAP account, caldav/carddav account instead.
