ActiveSync MoveItems storm after 10.0.NE upgrade

Post by gardais »

Hi,

I noticed a huge battery drain on my iPhone after 10.0.NE upgrade.
Looking at the logs, both zimbra and reverse-proxy, it looks like iPhones are doing a lot of ActiveSync MoveItems calls.
These calls ended with HTTP 200 error code so it seems OK for the server, however I have no clue why this behavior pops in.

Any ideas ?

Thanks,
Ionel

Wanna play a game ?
Can you spot when zimbra was upgraded ?

Code: Select all

$ grep -c MoveItems trace_log.2023_03_*
trace_log.2023_03_05:42
trace_log.2023_03_06:52
trace_log.2023_03_07:74
trace_log.2023_03_08:68
trace_log.2023_03_09:96
trace_log.2023_03_10:54
trace_log.2023_03_11:138435

Found a hint : it's part of user's deleting email from their account on the iPhone, moving the email to trash.
On the iPhone, email is not shown in the inbox after deletion but on the webmail, it still shows up.

Emptying trash make one (and only one) of the deleted-move-pending email to go into trash.
Emptying trash again start the cycle again (one mail goes to trash, empty trash, one mail goes to trash…)

When no more mails are pending to move to trash, there is no more MoveItems calls made.

@gardais
deleting email from the account on iPhone, is this email from users own account or shared one?
