I had similar problems with outlook, even went as far as tcpdumping the communication.. Unfortunatly, I had to replace binc, as this bug was annoying my client too much. - otherwise I would have been able to look at the problem in more detail.
I suspect it's the multi-connection way that MS clients work. and not all threads in binc being notified of the change of state.
