EWS & Kopano

noise

i read a few thing and see that EWS not running on Kopano.
That means a Mac with AppleMail or Outlook not work
(yes with imap) but this is not the same thing like ActiveSync.

is that a big thing to implement EWS ?
How works EWS and how different is it to ActiveSync ?

I think a few people would enjoy it to use AppleMail or Outlook with Kopano
on their MacBooks

there are any infos ?

Yes, unfortunately it is. We already made a few attempts to provide ews in the past, but non were able to scale. So in the end we decided it’s nothing worth to pursue.

Since macs have native support for caldav and carddav, this is the better option for you. Have a look at kdav.

Who can tell. Kerio isn’t open source, is it? ;-)

@fbartels
i know :-) but perhaps anyone has ideas. is your try with ews public ?
and i saw zibra uses also z-push and have ews but only with license option.

All the EWS effort were back in the Zarafa days, I don’t think anything public still exists for that. (and sadly we were contractually not allowed to release the source code)

ok that’s really pity :-/
so i hope you reactivate this project in the future :-)

@fbartels

Microsoft is not bringing any new features to EWS so it doesn’t make much sense to put much development time in a project that will probably not be supported in newer clients

ok thats crazy…
i hate microsoft :-)

I just do not understand, if they ews already no longer support, why the hell then in the mac clients no ActiveSync is implemented. Like at Apple Mail too. For me is ActiveSync one of the best protocol to sync calendar,notes and mails :-(
