Hi,

We have taken delivery of two HP 6510 phone/pda's, with Pocket windows
2003 and activesync 3.8.

We are seeing something a bit odd, though not critical. We have the
devices to continously sync with Outlook 2003 when they are in their
cradles. Each time an email comes in, it immediately (more or less)
appears on the phone, each time we send an email it appears in sent
items etc.

However, if we delete an email from the desktop Outlook, it doesn't get
deleted from the pocket outlook on the phone. No matter of clicking on
the synch button or playing with settings makes this happen. The *only*
way I have found so far is to do, what i call, a full synch. If you
click on the options button in Activesync and then immediately click on
OK, Activesynch fires up and says "looking for changes". After this,
the deleted email disappears from the pocket outlook on the phone.

Is this normal ? Is there a way to get the phone to delete emails which
are deleted from the desktop Outlook ?

Olly

Hi Oliver,

Are you upto date with the Service Packs for Outlook 2003? A similar issue
has been fixed earlier in SP1. Refer "Deleted e-mail messages are not
removed from a Pocket PC or Smartphone device" in -

Yep, just ran Microsoft Update. All Office servicepacks and patches are
up to date.

It's still happening though :S

Any other suggestions ?
