I can read mails, connect agenda/contacts, work in my folders created in my mailbox. BUT.... my internettraffic is now a terrible 15 GB in 4 days... i've checked with an internet traffic meter and the open MAIL with exchange uses 300kbps constantly. The only way to stop it is not to disable the exchange account even... i have to stop mail, restart (with exchange disabled). As soon as i enable it again, the stream starts again. This doesn't happen with IMAP or POP accounts. As far as i can see, only with the new exchange 2007 EWS connector. Anyone has the same problem ?

Quite likely though I haven't tried it. I guess most users aren't in a position to choose (though you could forward to Google Mail and do it that way).

Is it the real solution for Mac people that need the features of Exchange? Or is it just another can of worms?

Restarting doesn't fix the problem. Mail cannot handle large mailboxes well, apparently.

I bought a mac when Snow Leopard came out but I have a very large Exchange 2007 mailbox (3-4GB) and it just wouldn't sync it. It would get stuck. I spent a couple days with Apple support but they couldn't help me. I saw lots of other reports on this online so I decided to return the mac while I was within the 2 week return period. I still want to buy a mac but I want to wait until these large Exchange mailbox issues are fixed. I am just not sure how I will know when that happens since it sounds like Apple is still not acknowledging the issue. Has anyone heard any official word from Apple on the issues with large mailboxes?

I've not long been running exchange 2007, connecting to work from home. When Mail is running the network activity monitor ticks over constantly. I used up all my download for a month in just 2 days! I just have to turn off Mail when i'm away from my mac. No solution yet. Rob @Joachim, yes i’m having exactly the same issue.

Lanes Wed, 11 Nov 2009 18:34:47 +0000 http://www.itwriting.com/blog/?p=1743#comment-149149 Finally solved, for myself anyway. Our admin rebooted the Exchange server. Although Apple gave me the following advice: Engineering has determined that this issue originates with the 3rd party clients based on the following information: Microsoft explicitly recommends that 3rd party EWS clients (like Mail) should avoid any kind of token serialization support for server-to-server authentication. For details on how to fix this server error, please refer the customer's Exchange Server admins to the topic "Token Serialization Right" under section "Types of S2S Authentication Requests" in Chapter 19 Server to Server authentication, "Inside Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 Web Services". (In particular Listing 19-14: Adding the token serialization right by using Add-ADPermission). Finally solved, for myself anyway. Our admin rebooted the Exchange server.
