Hello everyone, new member and my x50v is the first pda I've owned. I've been playing around with it for a month or so now and have loved every minute of it! This site has provided a ton of help!

However, I'm having trouble getting my email onto my axim. I have my school IMAP email account forwarded to Outlook. The emails show up in Outlook, but are not being sent to my PDA. The forwarded emails are being sent to a completely different subfolder. It's hard to put in words, but if you are looking at the left side of Outlook you see "Personal Folders" and then subfolders like "Deleted Items", "Drafts", "Inbox", etc. On mine, there is a folder for my school email named "Webmail" that is below all of these. It is not a subfolder under "Personal Folders". "Webmail" does contain a subfolder named "Inbox", which is where the forwarded emails are ending up.

I'm thinking that ActiveSync is sending the emails from "Inbox" under "Personal Folders" instead of "Inbox" under "Webmail". I'm not sure how to tell ActiveSync which Inbox to choose. I hope this makes sense to you, please help me out because I'd love to check/write emails on my incredible axim! Thanks again...love the site!

There are two ways to go about email on the Axim. One will just sync email between your desktop outlook and your axim. (Both email you have not seen and email you wrote but did not send) and the other is to just use the Axim to send and receive.

IMO, the first option is not worth much. There is a built in account in your Pocket Outlook called "Outlook E-Mail". All this account does is sync mail between your desktop outlook and your axim. You can adjust the settings in ActiveSync. For me, if I have mail in my desktop outlook there is no point in putting it on my Axim. I will just read it on my Desktop.

The second option is to set up a new account on your Axim using the same type of POP3 or IMAP settings you set up your desktop outlook with. Then you can send and receive email with your Axim just like on your desktop. Of course you need an internet connection to do this.

To get started you can go into Pocket Outlook and tap accounts.... New account. Then use the same settings as in your desktop outlook. If you can't get it to work let us know. There are some settings that can be a bit tricky sometimes. Good Luck~

Thank you...I also realized that I did not do a good enough search for this before I posted , thanks for explaining it to me anyways. I'll just set up my axim to get the emails through my wireless connection.

No problem, if you get stuck on some of the settings or can't get it to go let us know. Take care~
