I don't know too much about ActiveSync, but if it's Exchange 365 using so-called modern Auth (i.e. OAuth2), my experience is that MailMate r5757 works fine. You need to select OAuth2 in the "IMAP Account Settings" screen for both IMAP & SMTP. Specify outlook.office365.com as the IMAP & SMTP Servers, enter your email address, and you'll authenticate via a window that will appear.

It's possible the server side is configured to only allow specific mail clients. If that's the case, you'll see a message about MailMate not being an approved client. At that point you're at the mercy of your school and whatever policies they have in place.

But it's worth a try, it might just work!

I know that MailMate is wedded to IMAP, which is fine with me. As a long-time MailMate user, I wonder if I can have my university mail automatically forwarded to another server, which can sync messages with MailMate using IMAP. Any ideas? Thanks.

I have no idea about forwarding, and really no idea about ActiveSync. But, a couple of years ago I used `davmail` to connect to work email Exchange. Maybe it will help with ActiveSync.
