ActiveSync + Pocket Outlook + Unicode characters
I have Unicode characters in the Note sections of my Outlook Contacts on the desktop PC. I am using Tahoma font and also copied the font to the PPC (Windows\fonts). These characters aren’t showing up correctly under the PPC. Is there anyway to display Unicode characters in Pocket Outlook (Note section of Contacts)?
Thanks for any info…

On your desktop open the outlook 2003 or above. set the default folt for notes as tahoma. Just create a new note. sync with PPC and view it. does this one also not display properly?

No, it does not display properly because Tahoma is not just a True Type font. It is a newer type font and if you look at its icon on PC, you would see an O instead of TT. This newer type font has Unicode characters inside of it. The ActiveSync works with True Type fonts but not with Tahoma. Please let me know if there is a solution, thanks.

Want more encodings in Inbox

I am running WM6 (on Hermes, if that matters). Very often the e-mail coming to me is not in Russian - Windows (1251), but in Russian - KOI8-R encoding. While Internet Explorer handles it just fine (when specified explicitly), there's no option to select it in the Inbox. How do I add it?
...Anyone?

how to use unicode in M$ contact in WM6?

I have a German version of WM6 and use the built-in contact to organize all my contacts. In some contacts there are notes written in Chinese (multi-bytes, I suppose). After synchronization with Outlook in my desktop, all notes became unreadable, I mean "??????".
I donot know if it happens when I synchronize my contact list with two desktops (work and home) or if it happens whenever I try to synchronize with one of them.
Is it able to specify which encoding should be used, e.g., UTF-8 in WM6 or Outlook in XP or Vista? Or do you have your own solution for it? If so, I would be very grateful if you can share it with me. Many thanks.

Modify Native Messaging Program?

I remember back when Windows Mobile was Windows CE and you could reply to a message in any inbox with whichever email address you wanted, via a drop down menu - just like in Outlook.
They removed this feature. I know you can do it with Flex Mail - but I was wonder why nobody has just modified the original windows messaging program to accomadate this - like they have modified Pocket IE...
Has someone?

Need help to change default apps for email attachements

I have a HTC Touch HD running WM 6.1
Have the Softmaker Office suite installed and have used Total Commander to associate excel .xls and word .doc files to open with Softmaker's Planmaker and Textmaker applications.
From within file manager this works perfectly.
Problem: Unfortunately any excel or word files received as email attacments are opened using the default pocket excel and word applications which screws up the formatting.
Can anyone help me to change the default applications for opening these attachements from within email?
Thanks
