I’m ignorant. What does native exchange support mean? I know we can get outlook/hotmail etc but is this more of the enterprise support?
Here is my understanding of it -
Currently, TB uses POP3/IMAP protocol to access your Mailbox on Exchange Server.
Ideally, it should be done via MS EWS Web API [1][2] which TB currently doesn’t support, but MS Office Outlook does.
Given that MS Exchange is heavily used in corporate/company setup, it[3] will put TB on par with Outlook in that regard.
