  +++ There is an extra citation line when replying to email.

  Some !ActiveSync clients automatically append the citation line to  
outgoing reply text. Due to this, and the way //Smart Reply// works in  
!ActiveSync this can lead to duplicate citation lines when replying to  
email on these clients.

++++ Autodiscovery fails.
+
+To start with, not all devices support this. Of those that claim to,  
some do not implement it correctly. For example, Android clients send  
broken Autodiscover requests where they pass the full email address as  
the username in the HTTP Authorization data, and don't even bother  
with sending the XML request. We work around these issues where we  
can, but simply cannot work around every single possible device issue.  
  If Autodiscover fails, you simply have to configure the client  
manually - usually not more than an additional one or two fields.
