autoconfiguration of imap/smtp/.. can be done via dns-autodiscovery in conjuntion with an xml-file provided by the dns-srv-record. this works fine.
 
the problem is the limited functionality of eas (specified by microsoft) which is not sufficient for our users.
 
caldavsync can be autoconfigured in similar fashion. problems for the technically unexperience user will arise when he/she tries to access objects shared by others.

Did you try this option :

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/3189194/how-to-disable-simplified-account-creation-in-outlook-2016

It was posted earlier this month on the list, i guess it could help to get the account properly configured.

hi,
 
as far as i know, there is no way to do this kind of configuration as there is no mapi interface to sogo. there was a project which tried to implement such an interface (openchange with a special samba version), but this project is abandoned (not to say it's dead).
 
you could use active sysnc (eas) which only has kind of liminted functionality due to it's specification or you could give https://sourceforge.net/projects/outlookcaldavsynchronizer/ a try. this seems to be a fairly complete implementation but it's kind of end-user-unfriendly (not very suitable for technically unexperienced users).
 
i'm sad to say that the lack of an easy to configure and easy to use outlook interface lead to the rejection of sogo to the advantage of ms-exchange not only at our site.

Dear SOGo,

we got some problems to configure SOGo for MS Outlook 2016 as an Exchange-Service.
And we didn't find something to get it working.

Is it possible to use Outlook 2016 in the community edition, or is it only available in the commercial version?
If it's only possible we're planning to contribute in commercial version.


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards


Christian Alf
