I just bought my first PDA.
Everything works fine as far as I can tell.
My question is: how do I synchronize my extra INBOX and CONTACTS folders
in Outlook?
In Settings/Options I cannot select additional folders.
Is there a workaround?
Thanks for the help!

Hi Ed,
Your extra Inbox and Contacts folders is stored in another pst file.
ActiveSync will not sync this information. You will need to take a look at
third party solutions to sync the information stored in the additional pst
files:
* Pocket Mirror - http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm_details.php
* Pocket On Schedule -
http://www.odysseyinc.com/Software/On-Schedule/FRAMESET_Pocket_index.htm
Note that none of these software's provide a sync solution for the extra
Inbox folder created. If its possible to setup your e-mail account to
deliver the mails into the default pst file, you should be able to sync
those mails as well with your mobile device.

Please log in for more thread options He Raj,
Thanks for the links.
The extra contacts folder I want to synchronize is part of the SAME .pst
file as the standard contacts folder.
But it does not sync.
Will I be able to synchronize this information?

Please log in for more thread options Hi Ed,
No, ActiveSync supports only the first level. You will need either one of
the software mentioned earlier to be able to sync the sub-folders.
Otherwise you may consider a free Outlook PCS add-in provided by Microsoft.
