Exchange ActiveSync is a licensed protocol. If any FOSS app handles it for free I'd love to know.

What's the use of active sync ?

[–] doc@fedia.io 1 points 2 weeks ago

ActiveSync is to Exchange as IMAP/POP3 is to other email providers.

So if you want your email client to speak with an Exchange server you're using ActiveSync, not other protocols used by other types of servers.
