Android device email configuration for Active Sync and Microsoft Exchange

New page

Setup your Android device using the Microsoft Exchange email configuration to take advantage of the included ActiveSync benefits provided with your Zimbra Professional (Premium) or Consumer Edition w/ ActiveSync ISP email account.

Some customers with Android devices may have better luck using the Microsoft Exchange configuration option found under Accounts in Settings or from inside the Email application, Settings, then choosing + Add account.

Using the ActiveSync protocol means the mail application will use Push technology, meaning the device will actively update data from the mail system, rather than waiting for you to fetch the data from the server manually. It may add a nominal amount of battery drain but most are willing to have very minor impact on battery life in exchange for the optimized experience.
