Activesync/OWA Desktop Client

Activesync/OWA Desktop Client

At my company we have Exchange 2k3 with OWA being public, serving up Activesync and webmail. There is no pop3 or imap support from our admins. Outlook 2k3's RPC over HTTP is also disabled

"Outlook 2013 now supports ActiveSync natively (no Hotmail connector); however, there appear to be problems with non-Hotmail connections.

The built-in Windows 8 mail client also supports ActiveSync connections.

Edit: It looks like Outlook 2013 will only support ActiveSync connections to non-Exchange servers; see Exchange, EAS, and Outlook 2013 for details."

You can use Outlook with ActiveSync - you add an account as Exchange Active Sync (from Control Panel, Outlook not running) , when you get "Log onto Exchange Active Sync mail server (EAS): The server cannot be found" - kill the host process from Task Manager - start Outlook and you will find ActiveSync access in Outlook.
