Shift currently supports the following email types to be added as accounts:

• Gmail and G-suite (hosted by Google)
• Outlook and Office 365 (hosted by Microsoft)

Microsoft Exchange accounts cannot be supported in Shift the same way the account types mentioned above are. Exchange-bsaed emails can be added using the Outlook Web App in the Apps directory.
