Being able to ‘Send To’ and ‘Receive From’ EAI addresses is considered Phase 1 EAI Ready.

We need to be sure that both condition must be true , it can not be OR. There are deployments I have seen which works half as of now. So all MTA, MUA, Antispam, Filters will fall in this category.

Some Example which are likely to be covered and pass the test:
Outlook App, MS Outlook 2016, XgenPlus App,Gmail App,Android Mail, Gmail, O365, Postfix, DataMail, XgenPlus, RajMail, Coremail, Spamjadoo

Being able to ‘Host’ an EAI Address is considered Phase 2 EAI Ready.

Some Example which are likely to be covered and pass the test:
DataMail, XgenPlus, Coremail

Is there a situation we need to consider where MUA supports IMAP but not POP for EAI, or we are going to test all MUA for both the protocols.

Evan:

Further to your report, please note that we have started talking about two different ‘phases’ of EAI Readiness for software.

Being able to ‘Send To’ and ‘Receive From’ EAI addresses is considered Phase 1 EAI Ready.

Being able to ‘Host’ an EAI Address is considered Phase 2 EAI Ready.

We need to be clear in the evaluation results (and the process). An application that is Phase 1 EAI Ready is indeed an achievement and we want to note that.

An application that is also Phase 2 EAI Ready is a splendid achievement, but there are far fewer services or software that claim to support this.

I would be surprised if an application is Phase 2 EAI ready and not Phase 1 EAI Ready, but I suppose that’s possible.
