Microsoft Exchange not working on Xperia X
I have Microsoft Exchange account set up on my Xperia X. It seemed to be working OK prior to the latest OS update though I cannot be sure about that.
Recently I noticed it wasn’t syncing emails nor calendar, I don't sync contacts. Yesterday I uninstalled the account and reinstalled it. Syncing was restored for a while but it’s stopped syncing again.
I’ve tried changing the provisioning and security certificate settings and tried a different server name, (eas.outlook.com and s.outlook.com) I’m using Outlook as my mail server.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Any ideas for a fix?
Thanks
Exchange Activesync seems to be somewhat unreliable on both my Aquafish (Jolla C) and my Xperia X. From time to time synchronization simply stops (I am not referring to the "synchonization failed" status in the email app cover that is almost always displayed - in this case synchronization stills works).
In my case, killing the /usr/bin/sailfish-eas process usually re-initializes the synchronization without reboot.
For me, Jolla's EAS got more stable since I avoided to synchronize additional clients with that same Exchange account (e.g. Windows Mail, Android, Evolution with EAS). Especially the typical double calendar items, and one-hour shifts of events are gone!

Please forgive my ignorance, how do you kill sailfish-eas process?
Thanks

In addition, I have only one exchange account, but in Calendar-app there is two exchange calendars in the calendar list: "Calendar" and "test calendar". Luckily test calendar is empty, so no duplicate entrys.
