MacOS – Mail.app @hotmail.com Exchange

emailimapmacosmail.app

Is it possible (in any way!) to enable my @live.nl, @outlook.com, @hotmail.com accounts through Exchange, into the stock Mail application? I'm willing to buy Office 365 for one account (and remove the others) as long as it supports 'offline' push messages. I've tried the following:

Add the account through 'Internet accounts' in System Preferences. As the exchange server, I've tried: m.outlook.com and s.outlook.com.

From what I've read, OS X Mail.app does not support EAS (Exchange Active Sync), which is the only form of Exchange supported by @outlook.com, @live.nl, @hotmail.com etc. Could anyone verify this?

EDIT:
For clarification, I want to have an Exchange set-up to receive the additional contact, calendar and reminders syncing.

To add Microsoft mail accounts to mail, you have to select 'Add other account...' from the internet accounts list. Then enter your hotmail email and password as normal.
