  Some devices attempt to use Exchange's Autodiscover service to make  
it easier for both the user to setup the account and for the  
administrator to make drastic changes like moving the server to a new  
URL. Horde attempts to support this as best it can. For this to work,  
you must create the URL alias as described above, and Horde must be  
able to figure out the Horde username based on the email address the  
user provided to the device. The configuration screen provides  
multiple options for this. In the worst case, if Horde cannot  
authenticate based on the provided information from the Autodiscover  
request, the device will fall back to requiring manual configuration.  
See the notes in the compatibility grid for any known information  
regarding device support for this feature.

  Horde 5 adds support for !ActiveSync versions 12.0 and 12.1 - the  
version shipped with Exchange Server 2007 and 2007sp1. This adds among  
other things: HTML email support, flagged for followup, more atomic  
policy settings, additional search sources, local wipe rules, and  
WBXML based provisioning (instead of the XML used in 2.5). There are a  
few things to mention regarding 12.0 support:

  * It seems some devices, most notably older Android devices, will  
not automatically detect the new version support - even if the device  
is removed from Horde. You must actually remove the account from the  
device and configure it again. So, if you are not seeing 12.0/12.1  
only features, be sure to try re-adding the account to the device.
  * It seems that iOS devices do NOT support 12.0. The device will  
communicate using version 2.5 with a 12.0 server. The next version  
they support is 12.1 - what ships with Exchange Server 2007sp1. So, if  
you are seeing 2.5 only features on an iOS device, be sure the Horde  
server has been configured to support 12.1. If it has, then see the  
first point above.

  Contacts, Calendar, Task and Email syncing are all working. Note  
that not all devices support Tasks. Of the tested devices, iOS  
(versions < 5.0) and Android are lacking native Task applications. The  
!TouchDown client, Moxier Mail,  and Windows Mobile both support Tasks.

  Client searching of an "Exchange Global Address List" (GAL) is  
supported, provided that Turba (or other application providing the  
//contacts// api) is configured to provide a GAL. See the Turba  
configuration for details.

actually support it.
