I have more information about the 'update storm' of sync emails. It seems that Google Desktop, when configured to index the Outlook information chances the individual entries during its indexing process, which seems to appear to OlFolderSync as a change of the item. This causes an OlFolderSync to se...

I have one computer where I've been running earlier version of OLFolderSync. I built a new computer that I want to sync with this first computer. I installed version 1.33 shareware on this computer, and everythings fine. However, when I try to install version 1.33 shareware on the old computer, I ge...

Sven,
I installed the new version, 1.32.1.0, on both the work computer and the home computer. Seems that the update storm issue has been addressed. Thank you.

I will run these for a few days and report back my experiences.

Thanks again,
Erik.

Sven, Thanks. I appreciate the look into the log file. All I can think is that your statement before is accurate, that there is something that is modifying the items in either my Outlook or the Exchange server. Since you've tested with an Exchange server, I'm wondering if there is something that the...

I set up a test. I created two computers with Outlook, and created two users on my Linux mail server, which is using POP3 and SMTP for sending and receiving email. These users were folder1 and folder2, and configured OLFoldersync for syncing their Calendar, Contacts, Notes and Tasks. Then I started ...

I have a number of items (task and appointments) that have reminders set. When the reminders window pops up, I sometimes just dismiss the entire window by hitting the ESC key. Could it be that each time the reminder is set / reset by doing this, that this generates a change message? If this is the c...

Sven, Yea, I saw how multiple changes were getting batched into basic sync packets, and I agree with you that there is something else going on here, and is not directly related to OLFolderSunc, but is somehow connected to it. One thing that I have unchecked is 'Tools' -> 'Options' -> 'Mail Setup' ->...

Sven, OK I found the utility where you can watch the log file. I turned that on, and made many changes to the contacts (I turned Journalling on for like 136 of them), and Oh boy! are there a lot of changes going on. I particularly notice lines like this: 11:24 -> ------------- found changed exchange...

Sven, If there a tool that I can use to decode what data is being sent back and forth in the emails? The reason that I ask is that I changed 7 contacts and 4 task items and got something like 803 update email messages sent to the subscriber. Another question that I have related to configuration. I h...

Sven, In my Outlook I have both request delivery confirmation and request read confirmation turned on for every email that I send. The emails that OLFolderSync, should probably turn these requests off, as the email is basically to myself. I have a macro that reports spam emails to SpamCop.net, and i...
