+ Known !ActiveSync Issues

The following issues are mostly due to buggy clients and/or variable  
implementation details between clients. In most cases there is nothing  
Horde can due to work around these issues.

+++ iOS Mail: Certain messages always display //This message was  
downloaded as plaintext//.

Messages that are over a certain size will always display the This  
message was downloaded as plain text message along with a button to  
download the message. Attempting to download the message results in an  
error displaying the email. This is an issue (feature?) with iOS.  
Viewing the attachments by clicking the download link for each  
attachment works as expected.

+++ Birthdays displaying offset by a certain number of days.

This is a known issue with most !ActiveSync clients. It's due to the  
variable way in which clients represent the birthday field of the  
contact. There is, unfortunately, nothing Horde can due to work around  
this issue.

+++ 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.
