I just setup a Windows 8.1 preview VM. I was able to successfully  
create and use an account with provisioning set to either force or  
allow. Windows 8 always seems to send a PROVISION request, even if  
it's not prompted to do so by the server, and it doesn't seem to  
accept the status code that indicated no provisioning is needed. Not  
sure if there is something else going on here, or if Windows 8 mail  
*requires* provisioning.
