This doesn't make sense to me unless Horde actually supported EAS for  
Outlook 2013. Rather, once this is supported we should send a response  
based on the highest configured EAS version to support. For now, we  
should do the opposite; ignore the mobilesync request and only respond  
to the outlook request.
