There is currently a dependency in the released package on code in  
Horde_Stream that wasn't released yet. I will be fixing this later  
today, but your error message doesn't sound like it's caused by that  
error. That error is caused by the iPhone sending commands (such as  
delete or move) to the server along with a sync request that contains  
a synckey of 0 - which is forbidden by the specification. It could be  
this is a result of the iPhone trying to handle the error caused by  
the stream code. You'll have to wait to see if the new package will  
fix this.
