Configuration of Outlook for Office Suite

Users of Office.com/setup Suite are provided with options where they can configure their Outlook to access Office Account by setting up their Exchange Connection. The exchange usually provides access to Email, Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks in Outlook. The other option for configuring Outlook with Office is by using IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol). But it only provides access to mail and fails to provide access to Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks.
