IPHONE ACTIVESYNC: EMAIL

A quick review of what you can not do with the new iPhone sync's with Outlook email...

  1. Cannot mark as unread after opening
  2. Cannot collapse the folders. Therefore, all folders in the exchange account mailbox show up except Calendar, Contacts and Tasks
  3. Cannot search or sort the inbox
  4. Cannot delete series of emails, have to delete one at a time

A few positive notes on the topic...

  1. Emails look more formatted or wysiwyg even with exchange 2003 as the back end
  2. Push work great
  3. To conserve battery you can set iphone to “fetch” at 15 min, 30 min, 60 min or manually
