Hello, Of course, now those who don't want to think outside the box are coming out. But to be fair to you, here are the links to my information, albeit in German: https://www.kuketz-blog.de/microsoft-outlook-app-greift-microsoft-die-anmeldedaten-ab/ https://www.kuketz-blog.de/outlook-versendet-microsoft-e-mail-inhalte-via-google-push-notifications/ https://www.kuketz-blog.de/reaktion-von-microsoft-zum-mitlesen-der-outlook-push-notifications/ And then Microsoft's proprietary protocol also grabs the data. https://www.kuketz-blog.de/outlook-versendet-microsoft-e-mail-inhalte-via-google-push-notifications/ https://www.kuketz-blog.de/reaktion-von-microsoft-zum-mitlesen-der-outlook-push-notifications/ And the fact that Microsoft's proprietary protocol also intercepts the data and thus also has access to the emails is enough for me! But what do all the data protection officers and IT security officers know... Regards, Markus

That may be *A* (your?) reason to use SOGo, but it is assumptive to suggest it is the *ONLY* reason an organization uses SOGo. > So why use a proprietary tool from this very provider that automatically syncs > all emails to it? Because EAS works, is natively supported on mobile platform apps and other apps. And no, EAS does *not* sync emails to Microsoft when used on e.g. a SOGo backend - what is your source for that statement? > Anyone who uses the Gmail or Outlook app on Android also reveals all their > emails to these two providers, which is why they should be an absolute no-go. For the Outlook app, when connected to third-party (non-Microsoft) email accounts like SOGo using EAS, do you have a definitive source for the statement? > > But this is just my opinion.
