I am looking for a way to stop SMS from syncing to my outlook.
I have windows 6.5 and my SMS end up in my inbox at work and I would like to just keep them on the phone and not sync.
Is there a reg key that can be changed to not put the SMS in the inbox or is there some sort of filter that can be set to not sync SMS with outlook.
Wait...SMSs sync to outlook? I'm using ActiveSync, and I dont see the option of syncing SMSs. Is this something in Windows Mobile Device Center (win 7)?
With Windows Mobile 6.5 it places the SMS in the Inbox so that when the phone syncs with Outlook it puts all the SMS messeges in the Outlook inbox. I use exchange mail for work but I don't want my personal text messages to end up in my work email box. From what I have read it has to do with Windows 6.5 using what Microsoft calls "unified inbox".
I want my SMS messages to stay on the phone and not end up in my work inbox.

Hi,
I've had a quick search and I can't find anything related to this problem of mine so here goes:
What's the deal with Windows Live and Outlook synchronisation? This seems to be a useless implementation and it's completely ruined the phone for me.
One of the reasons I have a Windows Mobile phone is so that I can manage all my contacts in Outlook 2007 at home and sync them with Outlook 2003 at work.
I keep my msn contacts seperate from these contacts, as I don't have MSN at work and I have lots of contacts on msn whose phone numbers I don't have.
Suddenly with this new version of Windows Live I have a choice of either not using messenger and keeping my contacts clean, or signing in and having it copy all my msn contacts into pocket Outlook so they appear when I load contacts on my phone.
It seems to be duplicating all my contact information (I had some contacts in MSN as I use hotmail at home) and there's no way to merge them. If I delete the contact with the msn logo, it disappears from messenger with no way to get it back (on the phone). If I delete the other one, it removes it from outlook.
Does anyone know of a way to merge the live contacts with outlook properly (i.e. not just by ticking that box in the options)?
The only way to get my contacts back to normal after Windows Live messes them up is to switch user in Windows Live and restore my contacts from my SPB Backup.
This is really frustrating me and I am shocked that Microsoft are still releasing such poor products to market

If you delete the msn contact and than get on the outlook contact, press menu press, "To Windows Live" and than take option "both", and use the email thats of you're contact msn account. now it will be merged.
Hope this helps
windows mobile appointments lets you choose attendee and will send them a mail through outlook is it possible to have it send an SMS instead or choose another mail account than outlook to send the messages ?
bump !!! .
I'm looking for a program that will add all SMS and call history from my phone to each individual contact in my contacts as well as in Outlook when I sync.
I had a similar program that did that on my Palm Treo and would like the same for my PPC. I don't remember the program so I can't do any research to see if it's made for Windows Mobile.
Any thoughts on other programs? All help is appreciated!
TIA
I don't understand. you mean... having your SMS messages saved with the contact information?

When I receive an SMS from a contact, I'd like a program that saved the SMS history to that particular contact within outlook when I sync. There is a note portion of any contact within outlook - the other program I had saved the call history and SMS history to the notes.
it would require both an addon for sync which would sync sms's to outlook in the first place
and second a addon which would add sms's listed under contacts in outlook
if it exist i doubt you would get it for free
if it dont exist then it's because of lack of market / demand
less and less people really depend that much on outlook
when contacts are in gmail or facebook or thunderbird or...
I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but I was wondering if it was possible for a private individual to send emails while out and about using "Outlook Mail" in WinMo (currently 6.5).
In other words, what I did was tie a gmail account to Outlook on the pc, then using activesync to get it on the ppc. Thing is, if I try to compose an email on my ppc using that account it just sits in the outbox until I get back to my computer and use activesync.
What I'm trying to do is easily be able to send out vCalendar/ vCard etc from my phone and/or not have an "empty" Outlook email option under messages. I've already tied my school's email and Yahoo email to the phone.
On Windows Mobile, MS Exchange and ActiveSync sync your text messages along with your emails. You are able to text straight from Outlook. New text messages arrive in your email inbox.
I have a 2.2 rom installed which I have been playing with and exchange is working well. Unfortunately it's clear there's no option to sync SMS.
I use this with Outlook Web Access at work as phones have to be kept outside of the room. I cannot install any apps on the PC. I hate to be keeping Windows Mobile for this feature.
Anything I can do?
Thanks.
Android 2.3?
oops... 2.2 new to android... sorry
