Spark hosted exchange
https://apps.sparkdigital.co.nz/apps/56398/microsoft-exchange-online#!editions

 

Anyone here using it ?
Im guessing its just Spark re-selling MS's service ?
https://products.office.com/en-nz/exchange/exchange-online

 

I have someone who wants to move their domain email to a hosted exchange service, just so Out of Office works as it should & phones & PC will sync emails properly (sent & received) & sync cal etc. (they are on pop3 at the moment)
Since everything they have is with Spark: ph, internet, bus email, domain hosting, using Spark for Exchange email would make things easier
Should be able to arrange it all via a phone call to Spark, & spark will change the mx records , add autodiscover DNS records etc ?

 

Rather than going to MS 365(or OneNet exch) & trying organise domain record change & organizing changeover etc

 

Edit : I see Spark also sell 365 business packages . That may help with OneDrive integration

It just says its exchange online - Surely they are just selling office/outlook 365...

 

Doubt that Spark will be hosting anything.

 

EDIT: Presumably Spark will sell this to you and help with the migration.

Sorry gents, I've been away on holiday for the last couple of weeks, hence my silence. I'm not sure about this at all to be honest, but I have asked one of my all-knowing colleagues if he knows anything about this, and will advise once I get a response from him.
