How it works
Additional software installations are not needed (i.e. Entourage). Just configure your system through the Accounts pane in Apple Mail, enter your Link2exchange Exchange user name and password, and check the box to automatically set up your other applications. Apple Mail uses the Autodiscover feature in Exchange to grab all the pertinent information from the Exchange server and configure your settings.
Adding an Exchange 2007 (EWS) account to Mail
Our Exchange servers have Auto discovery enabled, authoritative Exchange 2007 accounts can be easily configured if your domains DNS provider creates an Auto discovery record.
