not a question about whatever that pending exchange autosync thing going on with windows live but is anyone experiencing this issue as well with hotmail on Froyo.
Basically, all "read" 25 emails shown in the default email app becomes unread periodically. pre-Froyo, it was fine but after upgrade, it does this sporadically.
anyone with suggestions?
Happened to me on Sunday morning 4am :-(
No idea how to fix, but i'll be watching this thread with hopeful anticipation.

Windows Live for Windows Mobile.
Its not working correctly for me on Hyper Dragon III Full rom. Installed a cab for Windows Live 10.6.0034.0800. I then set up email (I have a legacy hotmail account) via messaging > windows live. Inbox fails to sync, but contacts will sync. After fiddling with manage folders sent items will sync but junk mail wont. So at present i am able to sync contacts, and sent items, but not inbox or junk mail.
Tried thinning down both folders (Less than 50 messages each) but no dice. Any one else having difficulties with windows live and hotmail, or know of a fix for this issue?
I know the server isnt broken because i can sync sent items and contacts...
Trim them down some more. Same thing happened to me. I think Microstink changed server settings and won't synch a heavily loaded inbox. I have only 26 items in hotmail inbox now and it works fine.
I thought they took care of the heavily loaded inbox by only displaying last 50 msgs...
Any who, slimmed inbox to 21 messages, and still no sync "Failed to synchronize Inbox"
Surprisingly junk email did sync with only 5 messages... Ill slim down my inbox some more, bur will be upset if my inbox will only sync with 5 msgs.
It worked after slimming inbox to 4 msgs. whats the point.
Had 25 emails in my inbox and it brok'd again... Boo . Is there another way to sync hotmail besides going to mobile live via PIE, or using mobile live?
This is ridiculous, i would say its an issue with my build current build of Windows Live Mobile, but sent items and junk mail are syncing now... Its the inbox that wont sync. It seems to be very enigmatic.
Anyone having luck syncing hotmail/live inbox with other builds of Windows Live Mobile? If so what build are you using? What rom are you running?
Thanks in advance,
James
This happened all of a sudden for me... I don,t think it's a ROM issue but a server issue. Might be a good time to consider using Gmail. I don't have this issue with my Gmail account.
Not a bad idea .
Hotmail seems to be working ATM. I'm gonna have it do syncs every 15 min for the next day or so.
Opened a gMail account as well, nice that they have imap!
What's the maximum attachment limit for Hotmail on mobile?
It doesn't seem to bother with anything bigger than 2MB... how lame!
Kinda makes HSDPA pointless lol
I've always had problems with Windows live, first setup it syncs flawlessly then nothing but fails. Totally useless. Like you say whats the point in having to log in via PIE, clear your emails out, then re-sync. I'm absolutely amazed that Microlimp haven't sorted this out yet I mean come on its not like people receive less that 5 messages a day what with spam and whatnot.
Useless.
The only solution I think is to forward all your mails to a Gmail account, but im pretty sure that's not a free service, nothing in life usually is.
Live Mail won't download
I've been running into the same problem where my hotmail account won't download. The symptoms are that the email account works fine (access from a PC always works), then suddenly poof, my phone won't synchronize with the server anymore.
On the WindowsMobile website, this is a known problem with the email service and MSFT is trying to fix it, but it's still broken.
The workaround is to find the offending piece of email that is causing the logjam. Once it's been moved to a non-synchronizing folder or has been deleted, Live Mail downloads just fine again. The problem is finding the offending piece of email. For expediency, I just copy ALL my mail to another folder, just to get the downloading working again. I have not found the characteristics that cause the problem, but I do know it doesn't happen to simple text emails.
I've been having problems with this for the last month, very annoying.
AutoSync
So far so good, with auto syncs every 15 min. Hopefully it will last, or at least allow me to find out what mail is causing the sync to break... I didn't know that there are bugs in Windows Live, (or perhaps it !is! a feature to have sync break) maybe it should be degraded back to beta.
I have been having this problem for the last few days, thanks for the notice that it was due to an e-mail jamming it up.
It was my e-mail coming from skyfire, the one telling me to log in and dowload the beta.
I deleted it, and it is working just fine now.
Autosync
Autosync-ing every 15 min or so seems to do the trick, so far for me. Haven't had any issues since cleaning out my inbox and setting up auto sync.
* Damn, didnt realize that i get so much cr*p!
Hi Guys,
I updated to FroYo on my N1 and everything is working perfectly except for my exchange calendar. It is showing all my appointments a day early.
All my emails etc are correct time. My phone shows correct time. All the appointments from google account show on correct day.
Does anyone else have this problem?
Bumping. Hmmm either no one has the problem or no here is using exchange on FroYo?
working fine for me.
Calendar sync is working perfectly for me - Happy Camper over here!

I'm experiencing the same problem but only for "All Day" events.
I've got the same issue for all-day events... Something occurring on say the 25th of May would be shown as both 24th & 25th. Hopefully they'll release the source code soon and we can fix it!

check time zones and daylight savings on both the computer and the phone, I've seen that happen in the corporate world when an all day event is entered in eastern and someone looking at it from central time zone sees it over 2 days
Same problem here only with "All Day Events" - they appear one day earlier. It is possible that since my exchange server is in the UK and I work in China - the 7 hour time difference may be the factor - possible, but I doubt it since others are experiencing similar problems. When I open these events on my phone, they show that they span over midnight.
All Day Events created on the phone appear just fine - both on Outlook and the Phone.

I had the same problem.
It was a time-zone problem.
Thus my clock was indicating the right hour, somewhere in settings my time-zone was incorrect.
I changed it and in a second, everything came back to normal schedule.
Hope this helps.

My outlook client and phone are on the same timezone. If I create an all day event on the phone, it shows properly both on the phone and outlook client. If I create an all day event via outlook, it shows properly on outlook, but on the phone it is behind by 1 day. It very well may be a timezone or setting issue - but I can't find any options to put it right. Suggestions? I have checked the settings via Outlook Web Access and those are also set same as my outlook client.
My work around now is to not set all day events, but rather set their time - at least now I can see the event on the day it was intended.
I added some screenshots to clarify. I created an all day event via Outlook Web Access (my notebook is at the office) - Vacation set for 3 JUN (all day). When my phone syncs, it appears as an all day even on 2 JUN. It does not appear to matter if my OWA timezone settings are set for GMT or +8 HRS like here in China.
What are your reminders set to? I don't use them on my all day events, and set them all up using my exchange email account on my work computer (when I get my schedule, I add it in right away... also always adding in other things, such as testing/training reminders, client call backs, etc.)

Thanks... that was my first thought as well, but looking at the activesync data sent, the server is using the correct timezone:
I.e. I'm currently BST (GMT+1), and I've added an all day event for the 2nd:
Code:
<POOMCAL:Subject>
Testing
</POOMCAL:Subject>
<POOMCAL:StartTime>
20100601T230000Z
</POOMCAL:StartTime>
<POOMCAL:EndTime>
20100602T230000Z
</POOMCAL:EndTime>
<POOMCAL:AllDayEvent>
1
</POOMCAL:AllDayEvent>
But the phone shows that as being for the 1st in the agenda view, and if you click on the appointment, it says Monday, 31 May (!!!) - Tuesday, 1 June. I can't begin to think how it's getting that from the above activesync transmission... :-s
Just checked my original report to Google and that's now been updated in an encouraging way:
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=8529
I am experiencing a strange behaviour in the built-in email client of my i9000. It is set up with an IMAP account and I get a FC every time there are many bounced emails (returned for some reason) in my inbox. There are about 20-30 every day and as soon as I delete them everything is fine again.
It almost seems like those returned mails are "clogging" the client. Anbody with the same problem and/or a solution?
Thanks a lot...

rooted Froyo
I have no idea why, but my phone won't include my reply in exchange emails. It just looks like I sent the original email back to the person. I searched all over and couldn't find any real answers. My phone has been fine for a while, this is a recent issue within the last week. Does anyone have some ideas on a solution?
Which email client are you using? I have only had luck with K9 mail for exchange servers.
Sent from my Cappy
Native client.
We have about 6-7 of these as company phones. This is the only time we have had this issue.
So far I am really loving my Windows Phone but I have little thing thing that is nagging at me. Has anyone noticed an inconsistency in email push. Has anyone else noticed this? I have my live, gmail, and exchange syncing and they are all set to sync when mail arrives. I've noticed it because I can get notified on my desktop that I have mail in exchange and sometimes my phone doesn't notify me until 15 minutes later.
I only use exchange (2010) and my phone normally get it before my desktop.

In some corporations (like mine) the Exchange Server has two separate instances -- one for the corporate network and one specifically for the mobile device support. Synchronization between the two servers is not instantaneous, so there can be delays (both ways) between when emails are received on each platform. Sometimes, the Activesync software (used to support the mobile devices) can introduce delays as well.
