outlook email lag
 

i use outlook exchange server for work. in my activesync settings i have set to synchronize when new items arrive during both peak and off-peak times

with my blackberry, i used to receive email immediately which would actually be before i would get them on my desktop outlook program.

with my htc tp2, there is a 5- 10 minute lag.

any ideas for how to fix this lag time?

I dont think there is, it is just how it works but the push is free on blackberrys you have to pay for the service

It could be your firewall config or your providers firewall config. I'm dealing with a similar issue now and from what I can tell it's Verizon's problem. Basically, activesync opens a standing http/s connection to Exchange and if the firewall times out the connection too quickly the messages don't get through till the next resync period. You can manage it a bit by adjusting some heartbeat interval values in the phones registry, but I'm sure battery life suffers. Activesync defaults to using a 30 minute session and at minimum 15 minutes. I had to drop mine below 5 minutes to get around Verizon.
