Gmail no longer supports Exchange ActiveSync

Last week, Google said that Gmail will stop supporting Exchange ActiveSync (EAS) soon. In response, Microsoft commented yesterday on the Office official blog that they were very shocked.

Microsoft pointed out that this means that many free users who are using Gmail have to reduce their mobile email experience, use the old protocol to synchronize your calendar and address book, can not push new messages directly, can not get any function brought by Exchange ActiveSync .

Microsoft said that if you want to get a better email experience, especially on mobile phones and tablets, it is recommended that you upgrade to Outlook.com. You just need to sign up for an Outlook.com account and set up in Gmail to automatically push emails to Outlook.com to avoid the trouble that Gmail does not support EAS.
