Exchange ActiveSync clients can access files and Web sites that are located on Windows SharePoint Services and Windows file shares. You can use the Remote File Servers tab to configure which file servers are allowed and blocked for your Exchange ActiveSync client devices.

Block List
  • Click the Block button to configure a list of host names of servers to which clients are denied access.

  • The Block list takes precedence over the Allow list. To add a host name to the Block list, type the host name in the Block List dialog box, and then click Add. To remove a host name from the Block list, select the host name, and then click the Delete button in the Block List dialog box.

Allow List
  • Click the Allow button to configure a list of host names of servers from which clients are allowed to access files.

  • To add a host name to the Allow list, type the host name in the Allow List dialog box, and then click Add. To remove a host name from the Allow list, select the name, and then click the Delete button in the Allow List dialog box.

  • If a host name is specified in the Allow list and the Block list, clients will be blocked from accessing files from that host name.

Unknown Servers
  • Use this list to specify how to access files from host names that are not listed in either the Block list or the Allow list. The default value is Allow.

Enter the domain suffixes that should be treated as internal
  • Use this option to configure specific host names as internal host names. Click the Configure button to add host names to the Internal Domain Suffix List.

  • When clients try to access files on one of these host names, Exchange ActiveSync uses the internal network to access these files instead of trying to access them over the Internet.
