  • Improved Logic for Interval-Based Notifications for Delegated and Shared Mailboxes: Previously, the EWS folders were not differentiated by their mailbox. As a result, if one mailbox had many folders subscribed for notifications, other mailboxes would not be synced until the first mailbox had finished syncing all its folders.

    Now, interval-based folder sync is triggered for the next available EWS mailbox (Delegated or Shared) to ensure all mailboxes have equal priority. Each mailbox has its own queue of folders for synchronization, allowing for more balanced and efficient syncing. Ivanti does not recommend to enable automatic sync of many folders as this will increase the full sync cycle.
