I have an imate PDA2K. I am running a piece of software called GoodLink, which is a push technology like a blackberry. Anyway, it has it's own apps (email, calendar, contacts, notes and tasks) that syncs with my corporate exchange mailbox.
My problem is that since it does not use the built-in email client, every program I have that can launch an email, goes to the built-in email and not the goodlink email. Does anyone know if there is a way I can make a change somewhere (registry setting) to tell the pocket pc when another program wants to launch a new message, it opens it up in goodlink email?
Thanks in advance!
Hi All,
I currently have a Pocket Outlook profile setup to use our inhouse Zimbra server for synchronisation of emails/contacts/etc.
I also now have access to a xe2hosting.net account which I wish to also add to Pocket Outlook.
However everytime I try to create a new Microsoft Outlook profile in Pocket Messaging I cannot add the new details for the xe2hosting account - you cannot delete the zimbra details.
I also cannot delete the Microsoft Outlook profile thats already in place.
Can Pocket Outlook handle multiple Outlook profiles? or is this a bug?

I have a really really awesome answer for you.
Don't setup your email anymore, just go here:
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138636
This will setup an Exchange-like server and will enable you to do that. At least I am pretty sure that isn't what you are already doing, because this will setup the email and sync Calendar, Contacts and Email with PUSH. Let me know if you need any help.
I dont think you understood the problem, but thanks for reading and suggesting something.
Part of the issue is resolved. We can now add to the calendar and it sends the email to those attendee's we add to that event, thru our gmail accounts. How i fixed that was going into the office folder and using the calendar link in there. In menu/tool/options, appointments page, there is a "send meeting requests via: (email account)". I just changed it from outlook email to our gmail account. So now it sends them out with the gmail account rather than sitting in the outlook outbox.
THE NEXT ISSUE is that when anyone sends you a meeting request, from outlook(pc) OR from the phones calendar thru gmail, if you recieve that request on the phone, there are no buttons to "accept/tentative/decline/propose new time", like there is in outlook pc. It just comes in as a regular email that looks very useless. The only way to accept or decline is to read the email in outlook on the pc where you have buttons "accept/tentative/decline/propose new time".

Actually, I did understand the issue.
You aren't setting the email up correctly. If it is showing up as Gmail, and not Outlook it isn't setup for Exchange. You need to remove that account and follow my link to setup Exchange features...
Im not following you on this exchange stuff. What does an exchange have to do with poutlook not showing an email with the same options as outlook on the pc?
ok i just set this up on phone. active sync on phone says attention required.
result: the config on your exchange server prevents you from sync'ing. please contact your serv admin.
BUT getting and sending email is working right. Syncing is working for email.
Creating a calendar event and adding attenees is not working at all now. The emails never go out. Sending an event to myself from my wifes phone somes into the phone the (no good). But comes into my outlook pc correctly
Setting up sync has its own issues. I sent an event from my phone to my wifes phone. Oh joy, i get an html page i can accept with on her imap email.
I accepted it on the wifes phone and it NEVER went onto her calendar on the phone. Which leads me to beleive she must have sync setup too. What a joke!!!!!
It would be so much easier if google mail would include the MS office option buttons for reading and responding to event emails.
Not only that, but now i have to create events either on the phone, or in google cal. I can not setup events in outlook and have them all sync UNLESS i pay and use google apps.
Google has a big problem with MS. If i send an event to a google account, if i read that event email in gmail, its also striped of any way to open or respond.
The way this works best if WANTING to use gmail and outlook, while still wanting to use outlook for events cal, is to only reply, respond or accept events within outlook on the pc.

You have to ONLY select Contacts, Calendar and Mail. Try that and let me know if you still get that Att Required... Also, if all else fails I can give you my email and we can test it that way.
Hi
Does anyone know if anyone's working on this? It seems like SyncML is the most likely contender, but I've not seen an app yet.
Hi,
If you want to sync an email account just add email account in WP7. Don't forget to check that your thunderbird account is an imap one. If it's a pop one, delete it and change for imap.
If you want to sync calendar use google calendar (instead of Lighting) and add thunderbird google calendar tab 3.5 plugin.
or... windows live? you can expect windows phone to work exceptionally well with windows live...
