Actually have had my axim for over a year and am embarrased to say that i use Aol , but be that as it may, my active sync is not syncing my mails to outlook, what do I have to do Maybe it's time to go to Gmail.

Gmail is sweet. For now...

1. Be Kind.
2. Have fun.

does your gmail sync automatically with outlook

What does aol have to do with syncing to outlook?

Basically my axim is not picking up my Aol mail, I'm just assuming it has to go thru outllook thru the message program, if not what then?

I think your 2 options would be.. either get AOL into outlook.. and then let outlook sync.

Or use the axim to get pop3 access to your AOL account directly...

(and I know... as soon as i say 2 options people will find more )

This week I have been mostly listening to..... Short cummings audio

thanks psionandy, any idea how to do either of your choices... or any other advice from anyone would be helpful .....thanks as always.

AOL doesn't support POP3....they only support IMAP. That being said, you can set up IMAP in Outlook and sync that to the PPC.

BUT, if you're only interested in reading the mail on the PPC then just set up the IMAP account for AOL directly on the PPC and read it there. No need to go through Outlook, and the next time you check mail using AOL's web interface the stuff you did on the PPC will be reflected there.

Here's a link to AOL's IMAP set up information:

AOL IMAP set up

I've used the IMAP connection on my PPC a lot and it works just fine. If you're tight on memory, you can check your email using IMAP and then remove everything to free up memory (except the account set up information). Next time you connect with the PPC, the mail program will download the folders and mail again.
