Important changes to MobileSync with new Cloud Drive
Torsdag, Februar 16, 2017
Starting in April 2017 our MobileSync add-on for Thexyz Webmail is to get incorporated into our new Cloud Drive product for Webmail. As mentioned in an email we sent out late last year, MobileSync will be combined with the new AppSuite product and if you have MobileSync enabled there may be some changes.
What will the new Drive feature do?
With desktop software for PC and Mac, this will add a Drive to your computer that syncs all files with our Webmail app. You will also be able to edit Word, Excel and PowerPoint files online via the app.
Cloud Drive will give you 30GB of cloud storage with anywhere access to files.
Thexyz Webmail AppSuite will also include:

Changes to domains
Thexyz Webmail Cloud Drive will only be available for the whole domain. If you wish to have Drive, MobileSync and Chat enabled, starting April 2017 you will have to register your own domain.
I use my own domain
Using your own domain will be affected if you use MobileSync. You will no longer be able to use MobileSync on specific mailboxes. It will need to be enabled for the whole domain. If you wish to continue to use MobileSync on specific mailboxes only then you migrate these accounts to Exchange.
I use a domain from Thexyz (thexyz.com)
If you use thexyz.com, xyz.am, thexyz.ca, z9mail.com, zooglemail.com etc then you will no longer be able to use MobileSync with these email accounts unless you upgrade Exchange or register your own domain for the email account.
Will I be able to keep using MobileSync without my own domain?
If you wish to keep MobileSync, you will have to either upgrade to Exchange or register your own domain for the email account. We will be providing free email migrations to affected users and alias will be set up so that all mail sent to your previous address will automatically be delivered to your new box. This alias will remain active permanently.
Will I still be able to use MobileSync as a standalone service?
No. After May 31st 2017 you will no longer be able to use MobileSync as a standalone service. It will be incorporated into the new Cloud Drive for Thexyz Webmail. Thexyz AppSuite will be backed by the same industry-leading SLA as Thexyz Webmail, and supported by our team.
