Hello Yes this license is because ActiveSync is Pattented and in Europe it cannot be (European law about patents). Article 52 of EPC : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_patents_under_the_European_Patent_Convention

Regards 2014-02-10 11:12 GMT+01:00 Fabio Onorini <[email protected]>: In SOGO installation guide v 2.2.0 I read this text: "In order to use the SOGo Active Sync support code in production environments, you need to get a proper usage license from Microsoft. Please contact them directly to negotiate the fees associated to your user base. To contact Microsoft, please visit: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/intellectualproperty/IPLicensing/Programs/exchangeactivesyncprotocol.aspx and send an email to [email protected] Inverse inc. provides this software for free, but is not responsible for anything related to its usage." So if I want to install SOGo environment with ActiveSync support for my customers, I must negotiate licence plan? -- ----------------------- Fabio Onorini <------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------>Michel Memeteau - Directeur.
