[horde] Still ActiveSync problems

OK, after waiting a while, I get an activesync log now.

But Nine does not show me any new messages in the Inbox after adding the 
account. I don't see any errors in the active sync log. Nine is telling 
me, that is has synced recently.

There must still be something wrong with my installation.

Just don't know what. I guess it's the database or one of the config files.

Don't know where to look at though.

Any ideas are welcome.

Thanks + best regards,

Ronny
