:!: The Zimbra Network Editions include **Exchange ActiveSync (EAS)** support.  Use IMAP if you don't have EAS support on your Zimbra server.

:!: The Zextras add-on package also adds EAS support to the Zimbra Open Source Edition.

:!: In general, you will be **required to use a PIN to unlock your phone** in order to use Zimbra with an EAS account.

Our public Zimbra server has mobile support using the **Exchange ActiveSync protocol (EAS)** with 'push' notifications.

EAS will sync:

  * Folders
  * Mail
  * Contacts
  * Calendars
  * Tasks

:!: All modern iOS devices support 'Exchange' or 'EAS' accounts without installing any apps.

    - Enter **Server** ''zimbra.virtualarchitects.com'' \\ \\
    - Leave **Domain** blank \\ \\
    - Use **your full email address** as **username** \\ \\

<note important>Important: Configuring a Zimbra EAS account will probably force you to configure a PIN to unlock your phone.  If you do not already have a PIN configured, you will be required to do so at the end of the above procedure.</note>
