This article provides information on methods of syncing Microsoft Outlook's Contacts and Calendar events for a mailbox via the MailEnable synchronization services. I.e.:
Method 1: MailEnable MAPI Connector for Outlook
The MailEnable MAPI Connector for Outlook connects to the MailEnable server via the MailEnable IMAP service and uses extended IMAP commands. It provides a solution for full Outlook synchronization of emails, contacts, calendar events and tasks along with mailbox sharing support.

Method 2: MailEnable Synchronization Service via CalDAV/CardDAV
Microsoft Outlook does not provide any native options to synchronise Contacts and Calendar events via CalDAV/CardDAV protocols. However, third-party plugins are available. One application that has been tested with MailEnable is the 'OpenProtocols Connector' (http://www.arpdev.com/).

Method 3: MailEnable ActiveSync
Microsoft implemented the ability to synchronise Outlook via third party EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) servers in versions 2013 onwards. Unlike the 'MailEnable MAPI Connector' and 'OpenProtocols Connector' it does not require any third-party plugins to be installed in Outlook.
