You can't implement app protection policies on the native IoS app. Good articles to read are:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/intune/app-protection-policy
https://www.systemcenterdudes.com/intune-ios-mail-outlook-app/
It is also more difficult in terms of support, as you are using a non-microsoft app for mail.
By using native mail app and not using app protection policies, users can download the organisations mail and data out of the native app onto the device and then potentially upload it to third party apps, possibly to competitors.

In other words, it facilitates data leakage and insider threats.
Hope that answers your question!
Best, Chris

Hello ChrisHoardMVP
Thank you for this answer.
Is it a good idea to move from iOS Native Mail to Microsoft Outlook for iOS. I should find a table that compares the 2 products and what's the best for our users.
