To suspend LinkPoint Connect(ME) synchronization, do the following:

 

 

Full Sync Engine Disabling

LPC sync component can be completely disabled by the local admin (for Enterprise implementations) or by request sent to our Support team. Sync also gets auto-disabled if you change or remove your access authentication credentials; in this case synchronization will carry out ten MS Exchange connection attempts. If all of them fail, you will get a corresponding automatic warning notification by email; later, all your customization and synchronization settings will be reset to default and the custom Salesforce Emails, Salesforce Tasks, Salesforce Contacts folders will be removed from MS Outlook (the Add-In will not be removed automatically).
