Microsoft Outlook on Android will attempt to use Exchange Active Sync (AES). This configuration has a number of issues from data sovereignty and network performance issues.

When AES is used, your data is pulled out of the country and stored on Microsoft servers. From here, it is fed back to your device. This process introduces performance and reliability issues.

It is for these reasons, we do not recommmend or support using Exchange Active Sync (AES).
