Treo 700 Rumors

[Antoine of MMM]

I was just on the verge of buying a Treo 650 when I discovered that in order to use it for my email I would have to delete all of my subfolders for my email account (Outlook).

Does anyone know if this will be "fixed" in the Treo 700 with Microsoft system?

You do not have to delete any folders to use VersMail on the 650. However, if you do use subfolders with your email, then you will need to use a program that would be able to sync with those subfolders. I personally do not know of any that sync email subfolders. VersaMail on the 650 and Outlook on WinMobile devices will only sync the topmost Outlook Inbox folder and not subones.

I guess I could live without the synchronization of the subfolders with the Treo.

But, what I have been told by our corporate IT is that in order to send all (including those now directed to my subfolders) emails I receive from the server to the Treo, I would have to remove my subfolders.

The argument is that the server directs my designated emails with subfolders to their respective subfolders prior to sending to the Treo. Therefore, only the inbox emails left over after the forwarding operation would be sent to the Treo.

Is this true?

Ah, you have a rule on the Exchange server that parses the email. Eeeh. That would explain it. Nice setup though, I do the same thing at home but my rules arent server based, so therefore they come to one inbox, but on the client side they get pushed to seperate folders. In this I am able to get the mail on my Treo, but at home be able to categorize it.

Still thinking of a program that would help here, but it would definitely be something the plugs into Exchange at teh server level and then recognizes that your treo is asking for the mail and not Outlook.
