This article states
"... and servers that utilize the Exchange ActiveSync protocol."
But in Apple article http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14873 it states it uses Exchange Web Services (EWS) not ActiveSync.
These are two completely diffrent protocols. And it means a lot, if ActiveSync is being added to OS X or not.
MacBook, OS X Mavericks (10.9.1)
Original Apple article that I am questioning is at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5847
Waking year old zombie thread. (Sorry.)
I'm pretty sure this is the root of delay with Exchange when I setup my corporate email account in Mac Mail. There is a 5 minute + delay when receiving email. This can be a lifetime when firing emails off back and forth, all day long.
I do see EWS in the server configuration through the Mac Mail > File > Preferences > Accounts.
We are currently hosted by Microsoft at outlook.office365.com.
I think the Exchange EWS server delay is solved in macOS Sierra's Mac Mail! Actually, I think it's faster than my hardwired Windows 7 laptop sitting right next to it!
