Hello, i know its a little bit Offtopic, but i know many Mailadmins are reading here ;) Does anybody know howto autoconfigure Mac Mail als ISP Provider. We have troubles with the default Settings of Mac Mail (POP3s with APOP) and want to change them via autodiscover. Is there something simular to Thunderbirds Config Site: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Thunderbird/Autoconfiguration google just offers similar problems, but no solutions :( http://groups.google.com/group/macenterprise/browse_thread/thread/a8829433131a7bca/7d391ec890c8b988?lnk=raot&fwc=1&pli=1 thx for your help Stefan

That is document in MS-OXDISCO and MS-OXDSCLI specs, which you can download off MSDN. The first spec shows how to find what the query location is, and the other shows the XML blobs you send / parse. See http://tracker.openchange.org/projects/openchange/wiki/Autodiscover_investigation for an example. So you can probably make your DNS and web server create the right XML blob for whatever configuration you'd like to give to the client (assuming that the client is something that knows how to do the microsoft autodiscover protocol).
