Auto Setup Outlook email account

Question

Hello 
 
 Is it possible i can setup up a full users outlook account with Sophos. 
 I need it to download the app (ios and android) then configure it from Sophos per user..... 
 
 Business regulations have made it so if any user wants company email we enrol it with Sophos mobile then auto setup the email. 
 So far when i have tried this is adding the outlook exchange account in the mail app, can i get this on the Outlook app? 
 
 many thanks 
 Michael

Hi Michael Corlett 
 It is not possible to setup Outlook app configuration from Sophos mobile. However, as you know it is possible to configure the default mail client of the device and Sophos Secure Email app. 
 I understand that this feature might be important to you and if you would like to see this feature in the future release of our product, please submit a feature request .

Hello, 
 
 you can configure the Microsoft Outlook App, but only if your Device is in Android Enterprise Mode. With iOS you cant configure the App at the moment. 
 First you need to allow the Outlook App with the Google Play for Work Store ( https://play.google.com/work) . After this you can configure the App Parameters under Apps -> Android -> Approved Apps -> do a search for Outlook. Here you can use variables in the parameters like %_EMAILADDRESS_% or %_USERNAME_%. 
 
 And here you can find another thread to this topic: https://community.sophos.com/products/mobile/f/sophos-mobile-control/110253/outlook-app-configuration

But before you set up this, you should check the articles below. The articles are from 2015, but i think its still the same! If anybody have newer News about this topic, provide a link pls.
