What is this Accounts; Server item??

[maxburn]

I am looking for other options to sync a calendar and contacts and I see this has both but doesn't appear to me ActiveSync, anyone know what this is? What's the protocol? SQL??

If you have an ActiveSync or Exchange server (like work or gmail), you can setup the account as an e-mail --> Microsoft Exchange. For example, if you want to sync your g-mail calendar and contacts only.

E-Mail app --> menu --> settings --> plus sign in upper corner --> gmail address and password (DO NOT PRESS NEXT) --> press Manual setup --> Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync --> and use these settings:

Domain\username: google\your-email@gmail.com
Password: *******
Exchange server: m.google.com

Then click next --> ok --> uncheck sync e-mail and notiffy --> check calendar and contacts

This works for any activesync and exchange server, but you need to have the domain and server settings from your e-mail provider.

I understand about activesync but what is this other server thing in the accounts menu?
