Mail app as Device Admin App?

[userXzsxI5FbJ2]

Why does Samsung require the Mail app to be Device Admin App? It has a lot of permissions on the phone. Seems very dangerous.

@userXzsxI5FbJ2 Generally, this is not required to use the Samsung Email app. Do you have your work email or work account on your phone? Many companies impose security rules like Device Admin if you put your work app on your phone.

Because some emailing server require device administration activation stuck as Microsoft 365

GoDaddy went to Exchange 365. My accounts are only personal but they seem to be treating them as business. Recently had to turn off weekly email recaps. Why they were on I have no idea.  One more reason to hate Microsoft.

Thanks.
