Exchange servers and Mavericks Mail

It loads it when you open the Mail app, but then no new messages will appear in the Exchange inbox while app is open - fetch new mail and the Activity Window show "Synchronizing Inbox" and jsut sits there and waits.. Close the app and reopen - New Mail appears. Another bug?

Mac mini (Mid 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9)

The same problems were reported by a minority of users when Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion came out.


From my own experience: Exchange and Mac Mail work correctly, in Mavericks and in every version of OSX back to Snow Leopard.


It was not broken before Mav, and it's not broken now.


I connect to 2 different Exchange servers, 2010 (which I host myself) and 2013 (Rackspace hosted)


I suggest that you try Touchdown for Mac, it's an Exchange client, only Exchange accounts are supported, but they are supported via ActivSync rather than EWS, Touchdown is the only client I have found that uses ActivSync on a Mac.

This thread is proof that your claim is nonsense. Funny that everyone complaining in this thread has no problem with older versions of Mail.app, and every one of them report the exact same issues with Mavericks.


Meanwhile you keep saying No Problem, No Problem. Well this thread exists because there is a problem. I can document and I can provide pcap files showing the problems in action. I have the proof. I have posted proof, and you and your buddies had those posts and the entire thread removed.


You or your buddies will remove any message which contains technical descriptions of the problem because that's how you treat people. But your ability to remove messages which contain proof you are wrong does not make you right. It just means you have Power and you're willing to Abuse it.

Create a new user profile on your Mac. Then set up your Exchange account under that profile. Does that have any issues?


Yes. I can reproduce with a new profile. I can reinstall Mavericks from scratch and reproduce. I can go purchase a brand new Macbook with Mavericks and reproduce.


I can then wipe the Macbook and install ML and it works fine.

I received all this problems with my brand new mac pro purchaised to replace my mac air.

And Air started to receive similar issues after upgrading to Maverics.

So, looks like issues you are mentioned are disconnected.

And i did recreate account with wiping out everithing couple of weeks on mac pro, as sometimes my calendar app stacks and cannot update my meetings from exchange.
