ActiveSync + Cached Exchange Mode - inbox deletes broken in OL2003 GM

Outlook498
[edited/xp'd from an earlier post to microsoft.public.pocketpc.activesync]



Greetings,



I just installed the MSDN GM release of Office 2003 (11.5608.5606). Since

then,

deletes on the Outlook Inbox are not cascading to the PocketPC. ActiveSync

is v3.7, build 3083. It only fails in Cached Exchange mode - when I switch

to uncached, deleting Inbox items immediately syncs the delete to the

device.



I noticed it because my junk mail was being properly zapped from the Inbox,

but was piling up on the PocketPC. Neither manual deletes and rule-based

deletes aren't syncing in Cached mode.



More detail:



- worked fine in earlier 2003 beta (beta 2, tech refresh) releases

- Activesync mode set to sync-continuously

- "additions" to Inbox (new mail, dragged items) trigger a sync just as

expected

- full sync (remove/insert PocketPC in cradle) clears out the items on the

PocketPC as expected

- did full uninstall of Office 2003, ActiveSync, Visual Studio 03, FrontPage

2003, and Visio, rebooted, then reinstalled Office 2003 and ActiveSync 3.7 -

same behavior.

- same symptoms on multiple PocketPCs, also on other users' desktops/ppcs

- deleted/rebuilt the OUTLOOK.OST file



Any ideas?



Thanks,

Pete
