For the named properties issue, you could always try this if you can't
find the source of the problem:
http://www.netomatix.com/Articles/KBArticle.aspx?a=820379
It is hard to say if this is the cause of all of your problems or not.
Otherwise:
Could you check to make sure what version of ASP .NET is running on your
ActiveSync/OMA site in IIS? It should be set to 1.1.XXXX.
You might also try this if your IIS metabase has become screwed up:

Or here is the Microsoft support version:

Hi all,
I have an Exchange 2003 standalone box with some issues. All the
iphone users are complaining about not syncing. I'm getting a lot of
event ID 3007 activesync events in the application event viewer. The
event states:
"Exchange mailbox Server response timeout: Server:
[server.company.com] User: [u...@company.com]. Exchange
ActiveSync Server failed to communicate with the Exchange
mailbox server in a timely manner. Verify that the Exchange
mailbox Server is working correctly and is not overloaded."
I tried testing OMA in IE and that also times out. I get a more
verbose event error (ID 1503 source MSExchangeOMA, but it I don't
know if there is any useful information there or not:

Week before last, I restarted IIS and activesync worked for a day. I
then went on vacation and no one else has looked at it. Now
restarting IIS doesn't even cause a temporary fix.
I don't know if this has any bearing on this issue, but the exchange
server is also throwing out several event ID 3667 events a day. Here
is an example of this:
Failed to create a new named property for database "First
Storage Group\Mailbox Store (SERVER)" because the number of
named properties reached the quota limit (8192).
User attempting to create the named property: "SvcBB"
Named property GUID: 00020386-0000-0000-c000-000000000046
Named property name/id: "X-vrpod"
The named property attempting to create seems to usually be the BB
service account or "SYSTEM". I've tried to research this a bit, but
can't find anywhere that states what kind of problems this event
actually causes.
Thanks for reading this long post and thanks for any help you can
provide.
Bill
