I sent a request to the 9folders support team on that matter. This is  
their answer:

"We had modified so that the bigger photo than the current photo is  
able to sync to server. However, the original photo size is unable to  
sync to server due to Activesync size limit.
You can see on server that bigger photo is synced to server.
The modification will be apply to the upcoming version.
When it is ready, we will let you know.
Thank you for your patience."
