Is there a program that I can schedule send and recieve. Ie have on auto except between certain hours when im in bed. I use the phone as an alarm clock as well. And junk mail coming in at 3 in the morning aint gonna be too good
Have you tried the schedule that is built into activesync?
It gives the options of peak and off peak time downloading, at the bottom is the option to adjust the peak times to suit your needs, here are my settings....
All Programs > Activesync > Menu > Schedule
Peak Times - As items arrive
Off-Peak Times - Manually
Use above settings whilst roaming - not ticked
Send/receive when I click send - ticked
Adjust Peak Times
Mon 7:30 - 20:00
Tue 7:30 - 20:00
Wed 7:30 - 20:00
Thu 7:30 - 20:00
Fri 7:30 - 20:00
Sat 7:30 - 15:30
Sun -------------
This means that I only get emails when I want to receive them.
I hope this is helpful.
My schedule seems to be greyed out any ideas. Alternatively is there any way of scheduling differant sound profiles
Problem Solved found g-profile a great piece of software.

When I sync my Hermes with my Exchange account at work, all my calendar items (namely, holidays that are marked as all day) show up on my phone 1 day early. If I change the calendar item on my phone and re-sync it, then it moves the calendar item on my desktop version of Outlook to span 2 days, from 1 am of the first day to 1 am of the second day. This seems to happen only for calendar items that appear after Februray.
Any ideas?
Same here

And I thought I was the only one that has had this issue. real pain in the @$$.
Nope, guess we are in the same boat. I have looked around a few places for a solution and have not (obviously) found one as of yet. I have to believe this is a sizeable issue that affects quite a few users.
Exchange / Outlook
What is the time zone that your Outlook client is set to use? You can find this in your TOOLS > OPTIONS > CALENDAR OPTIONS > TIME ZONE config.
Exchange / Outlook maintain their own time zones seperate from Windows. That is partially the reason why DST 2007 was such a pain in the ass to implement for IT departments.
Also, in your full Outlook client, check to see if the appointment is set as "full day" rather than from 12AM to 12AM or the like.

My timezone in Outlook is set for GMT -5 EST and daylight savings time is checked, which is the correct information. The appointments I am concerned with are the holidays I loaded, which come into Outlook as all day.
Hmm... you could try removing all holidays, sync with your device, re-add the holidays, then sync again.
An easy way to get all the holidays is to go to your Calendar (full Oulook) and change the view to "By Category", this should group your holidays into a single group. You can highlight them all to delete them.
To re-add them, go back to the TOOLS > OPTIONS > CALENDAR OPTIONS > ADD HOLIDAYS config.
Other than that, I am out of ideas as to what other variables are causing this in your case. Good luck.

Thanks for the holiday deletion tip. There has got to be an easy solution to this.
I've had same issue also with "Holidays" date from Outlook.
I was able to solve it by removing sync with exchange server and sync agenda only with my PC :-(
i had this same problem for a while. make sure the time zone is correct and the same in all of the places your syncing. i was facing this problem when the time zone was incorrectly set up on my phone, though the time was correct it was changing each time the phone was synced to my home computer. make sure the time zone settings in the phone are set not to change with the carrier.
Success!
I was finally able to resolve my issue. It had to do with the Daylight Savings Time change, because I noticed events before March 11th were ok, but those after were wrong. That is the new start of DST (in the year 2007). I suggest anyone with this problem visit this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/daylightsaving/default.mspx
and apply the patch. Despite the fact it says WM6 is not affected, I have WM6 and this fixed my issue. There is a spot in the article that mentions changing your timezone to anything else other than your default, then changing it back...perhaps this reloads something from the registery. Anyway, I initially didn't do this and my items were still off by a day, but then I went back and did this and it worked.
I suggest deleting any affected items from Outlook (desktop), sync your device then re-add the items and re-sync and, hopefully, enjoy your items being on the correct time and day!!
Even not :-(
I've tried everything:
my phone and my PC are on same TimeZone (Paris)
All DST patchs installes
All events entered few months ago are OK, but if I enter a new one in Outlook 2003 (exemple 2nd July, full day event), I will have it on my TYTN on 1st July
If I enter an event on 2nd July from 8AM to 9AM, it's well syncronised on my TYTN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That means only full day event are wrong
Does anybody have an idea to solve this ?
Thanks for your help
I experienced the same problem : during DST period, all my entries in the calendar on the phone were 1 day before the real date in Outlook.
I solved the problem by setting the same timezone as on the PC.
For me (living in France), my PC (XP) is "(GMT+01:00) Bruxelles, Copenhague, Madrid, Paris" and my phone (WM6.1) was originaly on "GMT+1 Prague,Budapest" and I changed this setting on "GMT+1 Paris,Madrid".
But every time I did a soft reset, the bad setting was restored probably due to the phone operator.
I had to unckeck in in phone settings the option "Automatically change timezones and time" on the "timezone" tab.
After that, I don't have any more problems.
Hope it helps.
Hey y'all,
Heres the thing.
I have set my TMobile Vario 5 to check email every hour.
Its configured to vibrate when new email/texts arrive.
Thats all fine and dandy, EXCEPT! when im snoozing away in my bed and it starts vibrating on new email in the middle of the night and I wake up and cant go back to sleep. Such a silly nag!
So, for the while I have turned off vibrate for email altogether.
I notice on the Windows live client email sync schedule, you can totally just turn off checking at off-peak hours, while giving it a different schedule for peak hours! Nifty! But that only works for one hotmail/live account, and the next accounts you want to sync are configured against native WinMo email client.
Is there somehow a hack/app etc, whereby I can schedule WinMo native email client to sync only working hours for accounts as gmail/hotmail etc. In the sync schedule theres only options every x mins/hours and no peak/offpeak schedule.
All this cuz I'd want it to vibrate in my pocket on silent in the day on new email, and totally not bother me at night
Any body?
and Thanks in advance!
You're not using pushmail?
Can't you put the phone on silent?

Well excuse if this sounds sooper noob, but pushmail?
I have my work email synced via Exchange and its got a peak/off peak schedule.
As for the silent, that seems very logical only if I didnt want the alarm vibrate to wake me up in the morning!!
I'd also appreciate a solution to this. Not just for nightime, but, for example, if I'm driving and using as mp3 player and I don't want signal interference noise all the time cos checking emails. Or if I just don't want to be bothered.
Is there any way to temporarily suspend the email schedule (without having to go and change all the settings for each email account)?
Ditto!
There should be a sooper nifty single click way of turning off all auto email syncs and then turn on the same way!
Pushmail? As in in the communication tab "Microsoft Direct Push", I have it on all the time and when a new mail is received it is "pushed" to the phone. The phone isn't really searching for mail (which would be "pull").
I usually switch off the sound of my mobile during night because I don't want to be woken by phonecalls / text messages. I use G-Alarm as an alarm which overrides the silent profile of the phone.
You can schedule it through activesync.
start - all programs - activesync - menu - schedule - off peak times - adjust peak times
I just select my peak times to be be 7 days per week from 8am - 10pm.
Then for off peak I select manual. No more emails in the middle of the night!
I have gone to the menus, but everything is greyed out except for Status....any ideas as to why I cannot get to the Schedule tab?
OK - I have disconnected the phone from the USB connection and now just "Schedule" is grey!
You beat me to it!

Emailscheduler: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=438970
Emailscheduler looks a nice app, but I just need a simple on/off for the scheduling and I don't think this does that. Also I got about 4 errors/restart demands in about 5 minutes, so I've removed it.
there is software from SPB Software, with help of WHAT you can set your SOUND preferences during day or depends on events, e.g. you can set to go in SILENT(or other melody/vibro) from 22.00 to 6.00 and he will do it automatically, and return back LOUD after 6.00 of morning.

Thanks!
Though EmailScheduler is currently a beta and some posts about it needing restarts errors..
But hey, might just be EXACTLY what I'm looking for.
Thanks so much!
Every day, using HD2 or other device with data connection, We synchronize data for email's , weather, rss, pushmail, or dozen others purpose.
In my case I use automatic synchronization every 4 h, for mail, every 6 h for rss, every 2h for weather. It should be connected - when I'm connecting for weather there's should be other data downloaded ( mail, rss, ... )
Idea - to make a schedule application running in background that launch data connection every 2..4..6h or whatever user want, and synchronize everything user want in the same time. There was something like this in windows 95, 98, and xp. "scheduler" or something like that.
Other possibilities of application - to try with wifi before using gprs connection.
Currently using sense 2.5 in HD2 I cant even set from what hour it's start counting 2..4..6 h intervals
Schedule application should give possibility to choose irregular synch. for example - starting at 6:00 am - every hour till 2:00pm then change to every 3h till 8pm and no synch in night.
To be 100% clear :
Application should :
0. Run in background and keep hand on time, count down user time intervals for synch.
1. Try to connect via WIFI, and if it isn't available turn WIFI off and try to connect using GPRS
2. force all user chosen app's. to use connection and synchronize.
3. close connection after all done.
All other application will be setted to synch manually - forced by this schedule app.
Has anyone had weird experiences using mail with an exchange account?
Current issues:-
1. No notification tone, even though the in "Notification Settings", Email notifications and Notification sound are both on.
Note:- Notification tone for exchange mail account is the default notification tone, you cannot assign a unique tone with the exchange account (Really don't know why they wouldn't allow this). The same default notification tone works with other apps.
2. "Schedule" not working.
My settings;
Days: Mon - Fri
Peak time start: 8:00am
Peak time end: 6:00pm
Peak times (frequency): Every 30 minutes
Off-peak times: Manual
Have deleted and re-created the mail account a few times, but the problem remains.
Also had another issue, where I could receive emails, but couldn't send them. I rectified this by simply un-ticking and re-ticking the SSL checkbox.
Hi,
Same issue for me unfortunately. I tried everything (delete the account, changing the time, exchanging peak and non-peak definition) but it fails most of the time.
Can't find any logical explanation so far and looking at many forums, we are not the only ones having this issue.
The only way to be sure it works is to change the timer configuration each morning to re-initialize it.
It bothers me so much that I'm about to sell my Desire ...
Sh1t can the built in exchange - it's pooh!
Touchdown works well and is in constant development with good support. I know it's galling to spend another 20 bucks but it's well worth it.

It also happens when using an IMAP account ...
I know this is a mail client issue, but I'm not about switching to another, I just want the existing one to work as planned
Perhaps the Desire update HTC is releasing (1.21.405.2) will correct that ...
My all day calendar events are disappearing early. Upon testing, it seems like the issue is that all day events are set in GMT +0 as my timezone is GMT -7 and my events are disappearing 7 hrs early. I tried bypassing that by setting my timezone to GMT +0 but it looks like that breaks regular non-all day events that are in my actual timezone. Is there any way to bypass this? I've sent an email to Zooper Team but after they sent me an email and I replied, they stopped responding.
has been facing this problem since day one though mine is GMT+8. any luck on this?
