Help Stock email app playing havoc with Exchange server - Resolved

Kibbster

I'm using Social hub/ stock email for both Exchange 2003 and Gmail and all was going well till people round the office started reporting their iPhones couldn't send or receive email through Exchange any more.

Checked the Exchange error logs and it looks like my Sammy launched a DOS style attack on the server with all the Exchange Active sync errors (at least one a second.)
Oops...

Forgetting the fact that I personally find it entertaining that the Sammy has knocked all the iPhones off the Exchange server, the Directors aren't happy their iPhones can't get mail ;)
The second I disabled syncing to Exchange on the phone the errors stopped and the iPhones reconnected - it's my name in the logs, so it's definitely caused by my Phone.

This was working fine last week and I'm sure I haven't changed anything recently apart from installing ICS.

Anyone else experienced this?
 
I had to delete the Exchange account on the phone and set it up again.
Something must have got damaged or corrupted in the client causing it to spam the server.

All seems well now :)
