Mail time out - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

I am getting time outs when I try to download mail over a VPN. Is it possible to extend the time out period on the XDA2 either by the registry or any other settings.
I can ping the server within a 3 second period of time so increasing the time out to about 4 or 5 seconds should clear the issue I am thinking.

Exec - mail account screws up yet can't be deleted

Discovered today that some messages were failing to arrive from one IMAP4 mail a/c on the Exec. Only symptom - first couple of times, got an 'undeliverable' message due to 'incorrect mail addresses' (they were fine)
Cheerfully kept sending business messages, they went from Out folder - but only later did I discover they weren't arriving. Very dangerous in fact, from a business point of view.
By a process of elimination, discovered not due to o2 SMTP or my mail provider - just this a/c on the XDA playing up.
So, Deleted it. But each time I soft reset, it reappears....
I'm reluctantly assuming a hard reset is required... bit rich on a 7 day old unit with only non-o2 app being Pocket Informant...
Anyone know an easier way to get rid of the phantom account?
Thanks
I've had the same problem, ilve managed to fix the problem twice, by deleting the account twice and recreating it. however this was not easily done as 9 times out of 10 the account didn't delete properly and returned after reset.
there must be a better way
Apparently you need to let the device "sit" for a fair few seconds for it to write to permanent storage... delete it and wait like 30 seconds, then reset and see if the same still happens?
Yes, I've just discovered this thing about having to wait on the Exec for up to 3mins before doing a soft reset -otherwise you lose any changes you just did (like delete a mail account...)
Early days, but I feel as though I'm having to soft reset the XDA Exec more than any previous XDA I've had....
nope,
tried 30 sec, 1 minute 3 min 5 min 1 hr all day
just keeps coming back

8525 Time changing when connected to Computer

This does not always happen when I connect my 8525 but it seems to jump 15 and a half hours into the future. this is really a pain in the butt and seems to have only statrted happening since I landed in Canada in an Eastern time zone. ( normally reside in Texas cst time )
Has any experienced this? I have SBP plus loaded running weather and time right now. Only other program is World Mate Pro. Nothing else on the device.
Hi,
I'm in Aus and have an imate JasJam and some of us over here were having the same troubles.
What we found was the time was being updated automatically over the phone network to be in sync with the providers time, but it also looks at the time zone. In Victoria, Aus, I kept having a problem with my clock being an hour out, and it ended up being that the network was sending the wrong time zone information.
To fix this, we opened up the phone dialer and selcted menu, options.If you scroll to the right you'll see the tab time zones, and uncheck the "Automatic change time zone and clock"
Then change your timezone back to what you want and set the time to what it needs to be, soft reset and hopefully everything will be ok.

I did what you said and reset my time back to my home city in cst. Since I am still in an est time zone when I turned the phone back on it automatically went to the est time zone to the correct time and did not jump to 15 hours into the future. I am ok with this since the phone has never moved to the correct time zone based on the network before which I like. As long as it does not do the crazy 15 hour jump I am ok. I will hook it up to sync a few times today and see what happens.
did you try to untick the synchronize time of device with pc or something in the options under tools tab of microsoft active sync?
Time Sync Issue Here - Help
I'm having a similar problem. Sometimes when connected to sync computer the timezone changes from EST to AST, but I have no settings on either device to cause this.
Help!!! Time Out of Sync
I have an HTC branded version of the TyTn. Every time I plug it in and try to sync the time goes 1 hour back and my future appointments move. I tried looking for the "time zones" tab previously reffered to and apparently my phone doesnt have such a tab. Any sugestions?

WIFI turns on automatically

Hi all,
every our my wifi turns on automatically and downloads my emails... nice one, but i don't know why and actually would like to stop it to save the battery...
I think it's something with the schedule option from activesync...
anyone have the same problem?
Well I was playing with the phone yesterday setting up emails. In your settings for email, there should be one that dictates how often the phone picks up email. Now, mine does it through the GPRS data plan, and I'm not sure why yours does it through wifi.
But there is an option for getting emails every few mins to every hour to every 4 hours to once a day.
So dig a bit in the email accounts and click things that look like 'settings' or 'options' or 'advanced' and you'll find the drop down box that have these options.

[Q] To Push or not to Push... That is the question.

Ok, I've read some posts saying that Push uses less battery power than polling every x minutes. I've read others saying the opposite...
Anyone know which is correct?
Thanks
If u get a lot of mail every hour, push is gonna eat your battery for breakfast. If u sync every hour or two in this case is best ( based on ur needs of course )
If u get the occasional mail a day, push is better than sync every x minutes
Anything inbetween is in the gray area and as I said it's based on your needs.
In other words If u have to read all ur e-mail ASA-they arrive you need to walk arround with a car battery on ur back ( from a truck if possible )
I usually get between 10 to 20 emails a day.
I have mine setup so that:
Peak times [08:00 - 18:00]
sync every 30mins (1x gmail, 2x hotmail, 1x exchange mail)
Off-peak times
gmail - sync every 4 hours
hotmail - sync every hour
exchange mail - once per day
This does me just fine as I'm never really more than 30mins from answering any issues via email - if it is a really urgent problem I request they call my mobile.
It's not a problem that I don't want to wait for my emails, I'm happy to poll every x minutes. I just want to know what's best for battery usage.
I have found that push does drain my battery.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
i find its better to just push your important email account then leave all the others on a long sync time like 4+ hours
i would push my uni exchange email, then all my gmail accounts and the one from my isp were set on a very long sync time this worked great for me as i got all my important stuff as they came in and battery life was still great
