Sorry for just dispatching the quick'n'ugly.  It looked like a production switchover issue to me, so I wanted to get you a quick response.

For what it's worth, I haven't encountered that specific message nor that behavior.  A random site of which I know once had the ECP endpoint out entirely and Microsoft Exchange apparently worked fine on most or all devices, ironically.  Apple Mail bricked.  The experiment was not repeated.

A reason I haven't encountered that message is that, at each opportunity, I've done the opposite of Scott's wisdom and ported the configuration file format first.

I probably had less to change than you did, but for me, a chiral mixture was more confusing and less predictable.  If I knew the code base very well, then I would have felt much more comfortable following Scott's advice instead.
