All works great. I've also installed Thunderbird because I don want to use the Outlook Web Application (OWA). Syncing emails is working great. However, I also want to use the calendar feature in Thunderbird. My calendar in Thunderbird must be synced to the office365 outlook calendar so my collegues can see if I'm available for a meeting or not. DavMail (working) DavMail is NOT an addon but a proxy. It translates the MS Exchange Web API into a standard CalDAV API, which is natively supported by Thunderbird. It is implemented in Java and is still actively developed (see last commits). It uses the EWS API of MS Exchange. From a quick look into DavMail it seems to only support POP3/IMAP. That is not enabled by default on an Exchange Server.

  1. Get Public IP Address of Redis Server

    2. You can use command like ifconfig on linux and ipconfig on windows to find IP address of your server. Below you can see public ip address of the redis server tagged under inet address which is 93.184.216.34

    Note that your machine running redis server must have public ip address, if it is running behind NAT then it will not be to listen for remote connections.

  2. Get Port 6379 Opened If blocked.

    3. By default redis server listen on the tcp port 6379. This port is ephemeral port (non privileged) and should be open for external communication for non root (non admin) users. But incase your network admin has blocked this port then you would need to get it opened by changing firewall rules. Consult with your system or network admin to change firewall rule.

  3. Change redis configuration to bind IP address.
    1. Move to the redis server installation directory.
    2. Open redis configuration file redis.conf (Linux) or redis.windows.conf (Windows)
    3. Uncomment following line and bind IP address of your redis server.
