With my exchange mail, I can set peak and off-peak hours - so it doesn't look for email after 6pm and before 9am.
However with gmail, yahoo, hotmail et al - I can only set manual or "every two hours, every four hours etc" - is there no way to set peak and off-peak for those types of accounts?
nope, outlook doesn't support that by default.
maybe if you posted a request someone could work on it.

I first set up my personal gmail account. The phone gave me the option to sync Contacts, Mail, Calendar, and Picasa Web Albums.
When I set up my second gmail account, its only giving me the option to sync Contacts and Mail.
Seems like I can only set up 1 gmail account's calendar sync???
Is that a limitation on the Samsung Captivate???
What am I doing wrong?
You can always set up a second gmail account in the Email program (not Gmail). It will also sync contact and calendar data. One advantage I like with the Email program is you can set peak hours, for instance since I don't check emails when I'm asleep, so I set it to never push emails from 11pm to 7am.

Where did you find the option to set "peak hours", do you use the standard email program (unified mailbox)?
Thanks

I would like to know this as well!
Hi,
I'm trying Froyo on my HD2, and I have a question about the native exchange support. In Windows Mobile, and in the HTC Sense mail client, you can set different send/receive policies for peak and off-peak times. I can't find the same in the native froyo mail client for exchange.
I want a 5 minute poll during working hours, but a 30 minute poll outside this, as I have under Windows. Is this possible with the native client? Am I just missing a setting somewhere?
Thanks.
So I have a POP3 Hotmail account and I am having some issues with K9 Mail. For one, I can't get mail pushed to me at all! It always has to check for mail every 15 minutes. This isn't the main issue though.
I have been using this app for a long time now and I still cannot figure out how to display my Hotmail folders. I have set that the folders be synced every 30 minutes, but I cannot see them anywhere. Anyone know how to be able to see them?
Basically, I want to sync my email as manual during peak hours (hours when I am in office and can see emails on my computers constantly as it is annoying to have an alert for the same email on my phone). However, doing so makes my calendar sync as manual as well. Can I sync my calendar on push and email on manual (ideally using peak schedule setting where I will have my emails on push outside office hours)?
I hope it made sense what I am trying to do.

Pretty sure this should be in some other thread, but anyway...
As far as I know, you can't do that straightaway.
The simplest workaround, for Exchange at least, without Tasker etc is to make 2 accounts. One is your email as IMAP. In this, sync only email at whatever interval. Do not sync calendar.
The second is your email as Exchange. In this, do not sync email, only calendar, contacts, etc. Keep it as push.
It's fairly straightforward to set up. Only thing is you will have 2 accounts in your email client. I name one Email and the other Calendar, or something, and never see the second one.
You will need IMAP enable for your exchange account by administration.
See if that works for your setup.
