Microsoft Releases Windows Mobile 6.1 Email Patch

Humberto Saabedra

Microsoft has released a patch for Windows Mobile 6.1 users that addresses a sporadic issue wherein an email account set up on the device using a carrier designated account can become corrupted if the carrier does not specify an outgoing email server of its own. If the connection subsequently fails to connect to a user specified server, it corrupts the account stored on the device.

The patch is free to download.
