Supported email service configurations for server-side synchronization

 

Applies To: Dynamics CRM 2013

Depending on your Microsoft Dynamics CRM installation, you may be deciding whether to use server-side synchronization or the Email Router/Outlook synchronization. This following table lists what is supported by server-side synchronization for each type of installation. Later in this topic, you can read about the scenarios that aren’t supported by server-side synchronization.

Important

The information here represents the POP3/SMTP systems supported by Microsoft. Although other POP3/SMTP systems may work with Microsoft Dynamics CRM, those systems were not been tested by Microsoft and are not supported.

Unsupported email service configurations

 Server-side synchronization doesn’t support the following scenarios:

  • Hybrid deployments:

    • Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online with Exchange (on-premises)

    • Microsoft Dynamics CRM (on-premises) with Exchange Online

  • Mix of Exchange/SMTP and POP3/Exchange

  • Creation of mass email marketing campaigns

  • Extensibility scenarios like extending EWS/POP3/SMTP protocols and creating custom email providers

  • Exchange Server 2003 and Exchange Server 2007

  • Server-side synchronization in Microsoft Dynamics CRM Online, or in a Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013 (on premises) deployment that is configured for FIPS 140-2 compliancy, requires a POP3/SMTP email server that is also FIPS 140-2 compliant. Some email servers are not FIPS 140-2 compliant, such as MSN, Outlook.com, or Windows Live Mail.

For most situations not supported by server-side synchronization, you can use the Microsoft Dynamics CRM Email Router. More information: Planning messaging integration in Microsoft Dynamics CRM 2013

Note

We recommend that you don’t use a mixed configuration of Outlook synchronization and server-side synchronization for appointments, contacts, and tasks in the same organization, because it may result in updated CRM data not synchronizing to all attendees.
