MS exchange server and desktop - Treo Forum

gidoc · 03-24-2008, 10:51 PM

I will soon be switching from Treo 650 ATT to Centro @ Sprint. My company uses a microsoft exchange server for outlook email and calendar.

Can I use activesync to get the email and calendar from my office and hotsync my centro to my personal PC @ home (to keep my phone book, memos, tasks, 3rd party apps, etc. off of the company server) ???

I use ChatterEmail with Ex plugins and have no problem. Others use Versamail with ActiveSync, without issues as well. If you don't already own ActiveSync, you can always trial it and see. It will definitely work for the Exchange server part. I'm not sure if you're saying your intent is to sync with Palm OS at home. If so, you can still do that, just not with ActiveSync.

This is what I want to do:
1) activesync wirelessly to exchange server for corporate email & calendar (outlook)
2) hotsync to palm desktop (my pc) for tasks, notes, media, 3rd party apps
3) if possible also see my outlook calendar on palm desktop after hotsync
?????

The first two are easy peazy. The last one should also work, but if not, you have to go into the Hotsync icon and set the handheld to over-ride the desktop so that the calendar syncs to the desktop.
