Data synchronization with mobile devices
Kerio MailServer supports the ActiveSync which is used to synchronize data between the com-
puter (server or workstation) and mobile devices.
ActiveSync is a protocol but it is also an application generally included in mobile devices
with Windows Mobile operating systems. It is also a desktop application installed to desktop
computers and used to synchronize data with mobile devices connected to the computer via
a so called “cradle”.
Kerio MailServer uses the ActiveSync protocol for direct synchronization of data saved on
the server with data stored in mobile devices. It supports synchronization of email folders,
calendar, contacts and, in case of some devices, also tasks.
