Differences between Apple Mail and Outlook using EWS

I know that this issue has been beat to death, so I'm requesting some very specific information to help with troubleshooting. My work has an uncooperative IT department that has indicated if I do the research myself, they will see if they can fix whatever settings are off in Exchange.
Details:
I'm using 10.9.3 and trying to connect to an Exchange 2010 server. When using Outlook 2011, everything works perfectly, when using ActiveSync on iPhones and iPads, everything works perfectly, but everything fails when using Apple Mail.
When using AutoDiscover with Apple Mail, it sets both internal and external servers to webmail.domain.edu, which ends up not working. After some looking around, I set the internal server to xxx-xxx-xxx-02.domain.edu and it starts working perfectly, as long as I'm accessing from within the network. Accessing outside the network results in errors.
Connecting to the Exchange server from my school works perfectly.
So my question boils to: What Exchange Server 2010 or EWS settings may make it possible for Outlook 2011 to easily access anywhere, but Apple Mail to fail when AutoDiscover is used anywhere and fail when manual server information is entered and attempted to access outside the network? Absolutely any leads would be appreciated.
I've run Microsoft Remote Connectivity Analyzer and it's worked perfectly.
Relevant log portions from failures (with certain information scrubbed)
When AutoDiscover is used:
<Autodiscover xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/exchange/autodiscover/responseschema/2006>
    <Response>
        <Error Time="11:10:44.4955481" Id="1505556818">
            <ErrorCode>600</ErrorCode>
            <Message>Invalid Request</Message>
            <DebugData/>
        </Error>
    </Response>
</Autodiscover>
When internal server is manually entered and attempted to access outside the network (works inside the network)
2014-06-02 11:08:29.641 Mail[8898:9303] EXCHANGE -[SOAPRequest:0x7fe52f462c10 connection:didFailWithError:] https://domain%[email protected]/EWS/Exchange.asmx//domain%[email protected]/EWS/Exchange.asmx ERROR
NSURLErrorDomain -1003 A server with the specified hostname could not be found.
I'd love any brainstorming thoughts. Anything that could help me would be much appreciated. Thank you.

We are running Exchange 2013 here with auto discovery enabled.  We have checked all the MS documentation and our auto discovery is stop correctly, auto discovery does work as the internal server is discovered however as the first post describes email isn't working with outside the internal network without a VPN connected.  One of the guys is leaning towards it being a TLS issue but could just be a stab in the dark.  I've got 3 people from our IT department as well as myself looking into the issue and if we find out what is actually going on, I'll post.

  • Difference between Apple Mail & Entourage

    Hi, I'm very new to mac & was wondering if anyone can explain what is the difference between Apple Mail & Entourage. I'm getting a smart phone soon, anyone has any problem syncing bet the devices & both software??
      Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Let me first of all say that I prefer Apple Mail for its simplicity and unified inbox. But I also use Entourage. Here are a few of my observations:
    1. Entourage does include conduits for Palm that work with both the Palm software and Missing Sync.
    2. The current versions of Entourage syncs with Address Book and iCal, and has a .mac sync also for Notes. So, instead of using the supplied Palm sync conduits, with Missing Sync I let Entourage sync against the Apple sync system, which then syncs to Palm.
    3. Images do not download automatically in the latest version.
    4. It has Apple feature support such as AppleScript and Spotlight search.
    5. Large mailboxes are stable - they are still not that way in Apple Mail.
    6. Exchange Server access is more robust.
    7. I have not seen the system load you mention, but I run on large memory systems (2Gb and 4GB.)
    8. The interface and behavior is more customizable - I mean sounds, spell checking, and most importantly, when and how to send for each account under particular circumstances. This allows you to queue mail for sending, and then execute it once you are sure, you are not going to change your mind. There are also ways to group mail in the listing pane similar to Outlook. etc.
    8. Functionality includes a News Reader integrated with experience, mailing lists manager etc.
    The most important aspect is that Entourage takes an integrated producticity approach linking address book, calendar, and communications in one environment. This includes grouping items by project. By necessity, it is more complex this way. Apple offers simplicity and modularity.
    It is clear the Microsoft team tried to achieve the best of both worlds. But in that it is more like Outlook - the proverbial kitchen sink!
    My way out is to set up a local imap server to share local folders between both applications, and use them depending on circumstance. All my mail servers are imap plus on exchange, so I have the both views onto the same world.
    Hope that helps.

  • HT1600 what's the difference between apple tv and apple tv2?

    What is the difference between apple tv and apple tv 2?
    How do I get videos on my Ipad to play on my Apple TV?  I tried Airplay and only vocal comes over. 

    Thanks!  Yea, I'm leaning that way and from everything I've read the 'biggest' benefit would be Airplay - and the 5:1 surround in my gameroom (or the 7:1 surround in my screening room).  I don't stream movies - I'm more of a blu ray collector and watch movies that way - so in all probability I wouldn't use Apple TV in the screening room - but there are several other locations where it could be a nice addition.
    I do watch some TV shows on my iPAD, and lots of music videos - so perhaps, with Airplay they'll look/sound even better if I push that content to one of the other big screens.
    For the most part - whenever I wanted to watch something from my iPad on the big screen, I just connected it to my A/V receiver - pressed play, and enjoyed.  Apple TV would now become that device that's connected to my A/V receiver, and the iPad more of a remote - uncabled.
    Again - thanks for the reply; it's proven very helpful.
    Cheers.

  • Delaying when switching between apple mail and safari

    just on mavericks.
    it more or less looks and feel ok but...
    when I switch between apple mail and safari, everything "freezes" for some seconds (up to 30).
    anyone similar experiences?
    what could be the cause of that?
    its really disturbing.

    I am a little puzzled by the libraries and switching between the libraries. My personal computer has the majority of the movies and content that would be transfered to the appletv. I chose to only select a minimal amount of content (of movies and tv shows, music via playlists) so there would be space left that would hold photos. Also, i just want to send over only what I want to view (manual synch) If I switch to my Kids library, it streams all the content well (movies & tv shows)(which is fine and streams well) If I switch back to my library, it shows every movie, every tv show, hundreds of music playlist that I did not choose to see. (stream mode) The only fix is to reboot the computer, and all is well. anyone experience this issue?

  • Differences in Apple Mail and Entourage

    I am running both Apple Mail and Entourage. I've noticed some differences I'd like to have someone explain to me. Both have accounts connected to Exchange.
    1. Apple Mail can access the Exchange server from any internet connection. Entourage has to be on the same subnet in order to connect. Why is this happening?
    2. I just rebooted my Exchange server and Entourage will send and receive but Mail will only send. What would cause that to happen?
    gbs

    Let me answer my question. Apple mail uses IMAP and Entourage uses OWA. That doesn't necessarily answer why Entourage can't access the server when off the subnet.
    When rebooting the server the IMAP protocol was not automatically started which prevented Mail from receiving messages.

  • Siri cannot tell difference between Apple playlist and Apple Station

    I have smart playlist with older but unplayed episodes from several Apple podcasts that I called "Apple", I also have an Apple Podcast station with those same Podcasts but only the latest ones, as I cannot get the Podcast station to pick up the older episodes that I'm catching up on.
    When I says "play Apple Station" or "Play Apple Playlist", it plays the Apple station, so I cannot get it to play the Apple Smart Playlist.
    Besides renaming my playlist or station to something non-descriptive, is there a way to make Siri tell the difference between a station and a playlist?  I know that they are very similar if you ignore the limitations of the Podcast Stations, but they are different things.

    If your AppleID is your MobileMe email address then the MobileMe account and AppleID are synonomous.

  • RSS feeds between Apple Mail and Gmail

    I was wondering if this is possible or if this even exists.
    I am subscribed to RSS feeds in Apple Mail which I love reading on my iMac. But when I'm at the office on a Windows machine I can only read my RSS feeds through Gmail. It's hard to keep track of what I haven't read and have read.
    Is there a way to sync which RSS reeds which are read/unread with Apple Mail and Gmail?

    Thanks, Andy. I should have posted a closure statement on this thread as I finally figured everything out. The most frustrating thing is Google's own advice at http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78892# couldn't further from correct. After many hours of experimenting with settings, I finally came up with the correct ones. In fact, I'm in the process of writing an article about it since there is simply no definitive guidance on the web that I've been able to find in the time I've searched.
    Your comments are on target...everything on the *Behaviors Tab* needs to be checked (excepts Notes) and the *Delete when* settings must be set to Never. But there are a few other things that must be done, including some changes on Gmail Settings before Mail and Gmail will be perfectly synchronous. I'll post the entire solution on this forum when I finish the graphics.

  • What's the difference between E-mail and Sync e-ma...

    My gmail account on my 5800 doesn't update automatically anymore.
    Does it have something to do with the account being under the 'E-mail' header and not the 'Sync e-mail' one? What's the difference between these too?

    If you assign your gmail account to the sync email app when you first open sync email it asks you for mailbox in use, chose the one you want to use and set the time between sync , access point etc. The basic difference is manual and automatic (unless someone can come up with a definative technical explanation that will give you a better answer ) just go to options-settings in messaging and you should be able to get it working !
    Good Luck

  • Difference Between All Mail and Inbox

    When I do a search for an email in Apple Mail it'll typically show 2 results for each search. 1 in 'All Mail' and 1 in 'Inbox'.
    Is there a difference between the 2? Is it essentially taking up TWICE the hard drive space?

    The 'all mailboxes' indicates you're SEARCHING all mailboxes, not necessarily that there are multiple copies of a message. If you only have one inbox, then 'all mailboxes' is the same as 'inbox.'
    If you have multiple mailboxes, here's where the distinction becomes helpful:
    In my case, I have 4 email accounts, plus extra 'on my Mac' mailboxes that I've created on my sidebar. If I know that the message I seek is on my .mac account, I can choose to search only the 'Inbox' and speed up the search considerably.
    If, on the other hand, I don't remember when or where the message came in, I can have it search 'All Mailboxes' and the system will look through all mailboxes from all accounts.
    In your case, even if you only have one inbox, searching 'All Mailboxes' can still help, because it also searches the trash folder and junk folder (each appear as just another mailbox to the system).
    Hope this helps!

  • What is the difference between apple warranty and applecare and applecare plus

    I understand that apple warranty covers damage due to manufacture defects and applecare is the extended warranty and insurance. Then what is applecare+? What is the difference between applecare and applecare+?

    The AppleCare extended warranty extends the standard one year warranty by two years and includes free telephone support for two years.
    The Apple Plus extended warranty does the same and includes some insurance covering accidental damage with a two claim limit with a deductible over the two year period.

  • Difference between drill down and filter using navigation attributes?

    can anyone let me know the difference between filter and drilldown options using navigational attributes. pls explain with examples for filter and drill down and how it varies.
    thanxs
    haritha

    Jst to add up with an example :
    Say you have a cost center variance analysis report with cost elements in the filter. ( not present in the default report result )
    Filter - You can right click on a particular cost center & say " Keep Filter Value " - it will result in only showing that cost center & you can wish to select other filter value doing " Select Filter Value ".
    Drill Down - If u wish to see the cost elements associated with cost centers you can right click on Cost Center & do " Drill Down To - Cost Element " or Drill Across.

    this will create a work area (spfli), looks like DB table spfli, but the statement is obsolate
    Bala Shanmuga Priyan wrote:

    this will result in a syntax error, because this would also create a work area, but they cannot have header lines, so you should leave the WITH HEADER LINE addition.
    To create work area use:
    DATA : gw_spfli TYPE spfli.
    To create internal table:
    DATA : gt_spfli TYPE TABLE OF spfli.

  • Difference between Export QT and Export Using QT Conversion?

    I am exporting video from FCE4 into iDVD, and can't understand the difference between Export QuickTime Movie and Export Using QuickTime Conversion.
    The first is much faster, but the video seems to suffer in quality. Am I missing something?
    Thanks!

    "Export Using QuickTime Conversion" gives you many more options
    (and many more ways of making mistakes); and it always recompresses.
    Using "Export QuickTime Movie" gives you the option to uncheck
    the "Recompress" box, which should produce a better result,
    if you're not changing codecs.

  • Difference between apple watch and apple watch sport

    Okay so that's pretty obvious from the features page on Apple's website, HOWEVER, which one is better for everyday use? How does the Apple Watch vs. Apple Watch Sport perform daily in terms of resistance (which scratches easier, etc.). It explained stuff on the page but I don't exactly understand it... Also which is more likely to cost more due to materials (again somewhat unaware of these things). Basically the Apple Watch and Apple Watch Sport explained in terms of day-to-day usage for the average user
