I am using the 'auto fetch' feature in Pocket Outlook to poll for new emails every 15 minutes. Is there someway of disabling this feature at night so it does not wake me up when a new email arrives?
Looking to change alert times
I'm using ActiveSync but instead of changing the sync schedule I would prefer to create an alert schedule.
It would allow me to sync always but only beep during working hours
Any ideas?
I'd have thought SKSchema would be able to sort this out for you. All you have to do is find the relevant registry key and make a script scheduled to change it at the relevant times.
Thanks to Chalky for pointing out SKSchema on this forum.
Hi,
Just bought the phone and its pretty much awesome!
I found out how to wake up the device (turn on the screen) when i receive a new SMS message but i cannot make the same thing when i receive a new email message (exchange push email)
Is there any way ? its really useful as often i cannot here the sound.
thanks.
For example, I want to check my IMAP e-mail account automatically every hour, but only in the 10-23 time interval. The reason, besides data traffic reduction, is that the notification sound wakes me up when I sleep.
Is there a program that can do that, while still being integrated with the windows mobile mail client (so that I receive warnings in SPB panel, Xperia panel, today screen etc.)?
Thanks!
rk-OSR (from xda somewhere) lets you set specific times. It's got a badly designed UI, but works fine when set up properly.
PhoneWeaver (commercial) lets you set up timed profiles to turn of the sound and phone between 00:00 and 09:00 and so on. It's got a bunch of options to make it fit your needs.
G-profile from Ageye lets you setup time based profiles that can let you turn off the sound form new emails... Means you can still recieve them and but will not be waked by them!
G- profile has a lot more benefits as well, downside is I experice some battery drainage but not to bad.

Thanks! PhoneWeaver does the job, I will also try G-profile.
With the profile programs I just managed to "mute" the e-mail alarm sound, but it will be nicer to have a small program that changes the e-mail checking interval to None during specific hours.
Have you tried rk-OSR ?
Here is my problem - I use push email in my office environment. But whe I work at my desk I do not really need it - in fact it is annoying to have all email notifications on the phoe. So my idea is to have an application that when my phone is in the proximity of my computer, the application switches off push email. I have seen something similar that uses bluetooth mechanism to lock/unlock the computer.
This is more of an annoyance and not really a problem but curious to see if anyone has a workaround. I use SMS and EMail notification sounds and they work no problem. SMS comes in and it dings...that's it. Now with email I use a notification sound for incoming mail with my exchange server. New mail comes in, notification sound goes off as you'd expect. The difference being on the email it will continue to notify every 5 minutes until I open mail. I don't need to be reminded every 5 minutes. I don't use gmail or pop3 so I'm not sure if it does it with those as well or if it's Exchange specific. Anyone else get this and/or figured out how to limit it to a single notification?
[UPDATE] Figured it out. Just had to change the Update schedule from 5 minutes to Push mail. Thought I had that set already but apparently not. Now it notifies only once.
