I seem to have found the problem, at least on my machine. I'm posting the
details in case anyone else runs into it...
It was somehow associated with my PST file, I suspect because it was an
'old' one (created in a version of Outlook pre 2002, probably Outlook 97
Originally).
Hard-reset the phone, and set up the identity (if you don't want the
default). Changing the identity after the first sync works seems to break it
again, so do it first, after a hard reset!
In ActiveSync (I used 4.0 to get it working, but haven't tried 4.1), make
sure all partnerships are deleted. Then add a new PST file, make this the
default for mail delivery and remove the original. Then use File->Import in
Outlook to import all your old data. Then attach the phone, form a
partnership and do the Sync. Warning - the first Sync is very, very slow.
One problem though. Now the Toshiba no longer synchs (!) though I can
explore it.
