ActiveSync is a client protocol that lets users synchronize their Exchange mailbox with a mobile device. By default, ActiveSync is enabled on new user mailboxes. Disabling ActiveSync on a mailbox prevents the user from synchronizing their mailbox with a mobile device (by using ActiveSync).

Administrators can use the Exchange admin center (EAC) or the Exchange Management Shell to enable or disable Exchange ActiveSync access to a mailbox.

For more information about ActiveSync, see Exchange ActiveSync.

For information about setting up email on your mobile device, see these topics:

• Use the Filter parameter to create OPATH filters that identify the mailboxes. For more information, see Filterable Properties for the -Filter Parameter.

• Use a text file to specify the mailboxes. The text file contains one mailbox (email address, name, or other unique identifier) on each line like this:

  ebrunner@tailspintoys.com

  glaureano@tailspintoys.com
  hrim@tailspintoys.com
