• Improved: Improved connection establishment during network changes or when an Internet connection becomes available.
• Improved: Improved notifications.
• Improved: Improved selection of the SimpleSYN Server.
• Improved: Improvements in the Outlook Add-In:
  • Supports Office UI themes.
  • Revised "Recover Deleted Items" dialog.
  • The duplicate finder can now be used in "Deleted Objects" folder.
  • The Outlook Add-In now also supports SimpleSYN Mobile.
• Improved: The SimpleSYN client will always display its connection status, even if no synchronization takes place.
• Improved: Backed up items are now automatically removed after 30 days by default.
• Improved: It is no longer possible to assign different folder types to each other in the synchronization settings.
• Improved: Improved log functionality.

• Improved: Improves filtering of recurring appointments (Business Edition only).
• Improved: Improved performance of the status dialog.
• Improved: Improved connectivity on systems with many network connections.
• Improved: Very large folder hierarchies are now not loaded at once, which allows to select the folders faster.
• Improved: Improved performance for the duplicate finder.
• Improved: If an folder needs to be resynchronized, it will do so immediately.
• Improved: Unsynchronizable folders are not shown in the synchronization settings anymore.
• Improved: While selecting a target folder for the synchronization, unavailable folders are not shown anymore.

• Fixed: If an item could not be imported, an invalid entry occurred in the state database and the item was no longer synchronized.
• Fixed: If conflicts were resolved differently and therefore not being synchronized, it was necessary to reset the conflict on both sides.
• Fixed: Fixes an display error for conflicts. The wrong time was used to calculate the conflict state ("newer/older").
• Fixed: Displaying an item during conflict resolution may have failed with a "item not found" error.
• Fixed: The notification icon was sometimes not updated, if the Windows explorer hang for a short period.
• Fixed: Fixes translations in the Outlook Add-In.
• Fixed: The "Restore deleted objects" dialog of the Outlook Add-In was sometimes not correctly refreshed.

• Fixed: In Outlook closed data files were not correctly released by SimpleSYN. This caused the files to be in use until SimpleSYN was restarted.
• Other: Many more minor fixes and optimizations.

• Removed: The flyout window opening with a single click on the notification icon has been removed.

Revision Version: 1077

Release Date: 8/7/2019

• Improves error handling for custom Outlook data fields that cannot be resolved. As a result, synchronization may have stopped and continued incorrectly.
• Resolves an issue if the synchronization state on the server has been deleted. If only a few items were synchronized once, the client did not recognize the required resynchronization and the synchronization was performed incorrectly.

• NEW: Improved initial synchronization between different versions of Outlook. For example, different separators in messages, or incorrectly formatted links, are handled better, eliminating duplicates during initial synchronization.
• NEW: After SimpleSYN starts, the folder hierarchy is always transferred once to synchronize changes to it more quickly.
• NEW: Subject line prefixes are now transferred separately to correctly represent custom values. Custom prefixes also could have lead to duplicates when a resynchronization takes place.
