change Send/receive schedule peak-times

[stynos]

Hi All,

I've searched an searched, but can't find a solution for my problem:

I use Exchange at work, so I use Pushmail on WM^(HTC TyTN). But of course I use popmail for my personal email. I have Outlook Mobile set to send/receive every 60 minutes. And everything is working fine. Untill here, there's no problem.

However; more and more people are trying to sell me Viagra, penis-anlargers, Russian brides and all that sort of stuff. Normally I'd just delete them, but I'm receiving emails at night. I know I can switch the retreival to "manually" every night, and then back to "every 60 minutes" every morning, but there must be a better way.

I've seen a program as described at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=316696, however, this is not a background-app.

Does anyone know of a way to alter the schedule for Outlook Mobile in the same way as ActiveSync? So I can use peak-times and off-peak-times?

Help is much appreciated!

Sometimes, I seriously wonder if these viagra business model does actually works.

Anyway, does switching off your phone (e.g. having it offline, no email, no calls, no SMS) an option? there are a few programs around that can switch your phone on/off on night times.

It would be, but part of my job is the "stand-by" service. In case one of our clients has an emergency...

If you can find some program that stop your data signal, you can consider using this scheduling program http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294575

I think there is a NoData software that stops your phone from having data connection.

My data connection usually auto-connects, so I don't know if that would do the trick... Is there no way of "hacking" the schedule?

I use PhoneAlarm, and I just set the "night" profile to not do anything on new email...

That'll have to do for now.... But still looking...

I'm all for this too..

It would be nice to have a 3rd party app that can more directly configure your AS/Push schedule. Right now, peak and off-peak is just too limited.

Some days I want full Push, others I want every 60 minutes, night I want on Manual, etc. It'd be nice to do day-by-day with options for full-push, every 15, 30, 60, etc..

True, Phonealarm does this but if all you want is a more robust AS syncing scheduler, it's very overkill.

If someone could do make an "advanced AS scheduler" program, that'd be quite popular I imagine (I'm surprised it hasn't been done already. Bruce at pocketmax.net shows it can be done for most devices...)
