Note: Exchange email connection options are not available for the Starter Plan. If you want to be able to use the Exchange email connection but are currently on the Starter Plan you'll need to upgrade your account. To see a list of our plans view our pricing page.
Supported Versions:
Currently, we only support Graph API connections for Exchange September 2016 Cumulative Update 3. For details on this please see Microsoft's documentation on Hybrid Rest API support. If you're running an earlier version of Exchange you'll need to connect with Exchange Web Services or IMAP and SMTP. IMAP and SMTP setup Instructions can be found here. Please Note: If you use Outlook at work, but are unsure if your email is hosted on Exchange, please ask your IT department.
