We present a general and exact formalism for finding the evolution of a quantum system subject to external telegraph noise. The various qubit decoherence rates are determined by the eigenvalues of a transfer matrix. The formalism can be applied to a qubit subject to an arbitrary combination of dephasing and relaxational telegraph noise, in contrast to existing nonperturbative methods that treat only one or the other of these limits. Hence we are able to investigate the crossover from pure dephasing noise to pure relaxational noise in detail. New results at strong coupling include the full qubit dynamics on time scales short compared with the environmental correlation times, which reveals unexpected oscillations and induced magnetization components and strong violations of the widely used relation 1/T-2= 1/2T(1) + 1/T-phi, which is a result of perturbation theory. We also discuss the effects of bang-bang and spin-echo controls of the qubit dynamics in general settings of the telegraph noises. Finally, we discuss the extension of the method to the cases of many telegraph noise sources and multiple qubits. The method still works when white noise is also present.
