Contacts as Attachment in Pocket Outlook - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

When writing a mail using Pocket Outlook, is it possible to attach a contact as a business card like we do in Outlook on a PC?
Sending it through SMS / MMS is okay if sending it to a Mobile recipient, but to send a contact to a Mail recipient......
Thanks

Normally you should be able to send contacts via SMS/email from the main contacts application.
However I could not find a way to do this on my TP2. (There is only an MMS option, which I'd not like to use).

Another Question about Outlook

I've looked around and can't find an answer to this, It might sound stupid and whatnot but I'm new to smart phones. I have my e-mail set up fine on my phone, I use Comcast if that matters. Anyways, I was wondering if there's a way to sync the e-mails from outlook onto the comcast account on my phone. Everytime I sync it just goes straight to the Outlook E-mail which means I have the messages I sent on my phone in my comcast account and the messages from my laptop in the Outlook account.
not sure on bump rules around here, but anyone know of a solution? figured it was okay to bump was 12 hours ;/
Can you describe your setup and how you are using it in a little more detail ?
I am using Outlook ( w/exchange ) and my ISP email account on my phone so I may be able to help if I understand your setup better.
I'm using outlook as my regular e-mail program on my computer. Using it with comcast.
I have it set up perfect on my phone, I made a new account and everything works I can send + receive. There's not necessarily a problem persay, but more or less it's the fact that I send e-mail's on my phone as well as my computer. I have it syncing perfect, but my question was, can I make it so I can send/receive e-mails with the Outlook E-Mail account on my phone? That way I can delete my Comcast account via my phone. Cause right now I have
1. Text Messages
2. Outlook E-mail
3. Comcast
4. MM messages
5. New Account
I don't even have to necessarily use the outlook on my phone, but is there a way I can sync the outlook on my ccomputer with the comcast account on my phone?
Like I was trying to say in my first post, for example; I was sending e-mails on my phone to birdbreeders in search of a bird on my comcast account. I came home and sent a couple on my computer, then I synced my phone. I synced the sent e-mails from my computer into the Outlook E-mail account on my phone, when I want it to the comcast. Now if I want to review the e-mails I sent I have to look at some on the comcast account and some on the Outlook account. It's more or less just a hassle that I'm wondering if any registry edits or 3rd party programs can solve.
Pretty much to some it up, I want to sync my computer with a accountn on my phone not to the Outlook account
(BTW maybe there's a way to set up the outlook account on the phone to use my comcast e-mail, but I don't have t-mobile so when I try to set up the e-mail it doesn't let me). If I flash it to the HTC rom will it allow me to set up the outlook e-mail to any account I want?
One more thing, would I be gaining anything flashing to the HTC rom? I use Cingular and live in the USA if that matters.
As far as I know, Outlook on the phone cannot send or receive emails. It can only 'sync' with Outlook on a computer to send and receive or direct to an exchange server.
The other account you set up (comcast) can send and receive emails from the phone directly using GPRS or Wifi or your computer's Internet connection (via usb or bluetooth)
As such, the two are separate and cannot be combined even though you are basically using both with the same email service.
To use the phone as you describe (everthing under Outlook) you would have to restrict yourself to sending emails via the phone Outlook account only but they would not actually go anywhere until you synced with your computer and did a send on desktop Outlook !
Typically people use Outlook to duplicate there desktop Outlook on ther phone or like me, connect directly to a corporate exchange server via GPRS. Other accounts are setup (like your comcast) for personal email. I use my personal ISP email account on the phone to only preview incoming emails (headers only) before using my laptop to actually get them off the ISP email server. Same with Hotmail on my phone.
Hope this helps.

Let me add a couple of my comment to the above:
The Outlook on your phone is for you to sync with your Desktop or Notebook Outlook with contents you could select including the Contact, Calendar, Task and Mobile Favourite.
You may setup using New Account and select whatever provider or pop3/imap account. This account could be identical to your Desktop/Notebook account.
When new mail comes in, both your phone's email (the one you setup using New Account) and Desktop/Notebook Outlook will have a copy of that email.
The copy on your phone will remove from your phone once you sync it with your Desktop/Notebook Outlook. You may also send email from your phone using the New Account which you setup but you should c.c. or b.c.c. yourself a copy of the sent mail so your desktop/notebook could retain a copy of mail you have sent.
The advantage to use this is that I could filter out all junk/spam mail before my desktop/notebook outlook retrieve the mail.
When new mail arrive on your phone, if they are junk/spam, you could delete them from your Inbox, then goes to Delete Items folder and Menu > 7 to clear all the Delete Items from the folder. The next time your phone retrieve email from the server, it will remove them from the server.
You should set the retrieve interval to either 15 or 30 minutes. Or you may manually connect to your server to remove those junk/spam mail from your phone.
Hope the above help.
Hi there, is there anyway to remove the outlook account?

Problem sending sms from outlook contact

Hi,
I'm having problems sending an SMS from an outlook contact. All my contacts have a number like +31 (010) 1234567. Outlook creates the numbers in that format automaticaly if you fill in country, city/area code and local number. When I synchronize outlook with my HTC P3300 the numbers are in this format. I can call without a problem, internally?? the number is stipped from the brackets and the leading zero in the areacode. When I try to send an SMS it does not work, sms is not send. Some experimenting shows that (010) 1234567 will work, +31 (10) 1234567 will work, but +31 (010) 1234567 will not work when sending an sms, only when making a call. I've searched this forum for a sollution, but there are a lot of messages here so maybe I've overlooked the answer
Does anyone have a sollution for this? Thank you in advance

Sync SMS with Outlook 2007??

I use Outlook 2007 fairly intensively and would love a way to be able to set up sms sync between phone and outlook in a similar way to email.
Does anyone know if this is possible?
I don't think this is possible as I would have done it a long time ago.
However, there is a free program which you can download and when you connect your phone via Active Sync, you can see/send/receive text messages from you PC.
It's called Mobile Express made by Efficasoft
Have you tried 'Microsoft My Phone', you can see and sync all your SMS to and from the internet using your live account.
Not realy what you asked for but its along those lines
I use Jeyo mobile extender 2.5

[Q] Cannot send message or email to "ME" contact

I'm running Mynn Warm 2.2
I have set up a contact with my email address and phone number as "ME" so i can easily send myself a txt or email for capturing information. I can see the contact in google contacts under My Contacts. I cannot however send an email or txt message to that contact in my messagin app, either default or Handcent, and i cannot send an email to that contact because "ME" doesn't show up as a valid contact when i type ME in the "to" field. Can someone help me figure out how to have my phone recognize ME as a valid contact and be able to send myself txts and emails to this contact?
I'm wondering if it may ahve something to do with the "My Contact Card in the Sense rom???
Just create another contact with your name and info that should work.
