Well, that's not very good, no. Sorry. Still, for people determined to sync,
they could change their mail rules that move incoming mail to other folders
to copy instead. You would have more messages until you archive or delete
them (and then do a one-way Entourage-to-Palm sync to delete the same
messages from the Palm), but it would still work and you'd still be keeping
your mail organized as you like . That's not such a big effort if people
really want to sync - assuming you can do one-way Palm-to-Entourage syncs so
you don't get all your messages duplicated to Inbox again.

There must be some reason why MS and Palm aren't getting together on this.
Financial, no doubt.
