Important notes:

  • SOGo provides EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) support, but not EWS (Exchange Web Service).

  • 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.

Requirements

  • iRedMail-0.9.0 or later releases is required.
  • You must choose to install SOGo groupware during iRedMail installation.
  • Outlook 2013 for Windows. Earlier releases of Outlook for Windows doesn't work.
