Revision history [back]

I have two IMAP email accounts on two different servers. I have set them up similarly with "personalized" sync schedule, such that they sync every hour during peak period and "manually" off-peak, so that if I do nothing they should just not sync off-peak and I should have no notification. In spite of this the two accounts perform one spurious sync each day after midnight (as can be seen on the 4th line of the attached log). It is not very pleasant to receive a notification in the middle of the night when you expect your phone to be perfectly quiet. My guess is that there is something wrong in the logic of the sync algorithm related to the date changing.

I attach the settings of one of the accounts and the corresponding log. The second account has different start and stop peak hours, but the problem is just the same.
