I, personally, haven’t had the chance to get the SMTP patch that Microsoft released recently for Windows Mobile 6.1 devices, but after all the complaints I’m hearing about it I’m certainly hesitant.
According to Smartphone Thoughts (and Pocket PC Thoughts) writer Ed Hansberry, he experienced no issues with the patch aside from a sudden soft reset without any warning. But Mike Temporale at MobileJaw had this to say:
A number of news sites have been reporting about Microsoft releasing a patch that fixes an issue with sending email on your Windows Mobile 6.1 device. The patch is available from the Outlook Mobile team web site and claims to fix the problem. I’m sure it might do that, but there are a number of things that they fail to mention. So before you go and install this patch, read the issues below and weigh the decision to install or not.
According to Temporale, email accounts were deleted and the device restarted randomly in Flight Mode - among other things.
So, how many of you have gotten this patch? I want to hear your stories, good and bad!
Download the patch here, at your own risk.
