Success achieved loading my TB! messages and their attachments onto a Palm m125.
First of all, thanks much to Britt Malka, who focused me on Tim Musson's entries in the Silverstones FAQ. And, though I don't know if he tunes in to this list, thanks to Tim Musson. Here's what I did and what worked, didn't work. 1. First, my setup: PC with AMD K-6; Palm m125. I Palm Desktop (ver. 4.0.1) loaded but don't use it. I have Intellisync (ver. 5.02) as my primary conduit. I also have the Windows Add-On Kit for DataViz Documents-To-Go. The Add-On Kit allows PDF files to go to the Palm, as well as Outlook mail messages *along with* their attachments (assuming one has ver. 4.0 of Documents-To-Go, which is a version upgrade from what came bundled with many Palms). 2. I don't know if this sequence matters, but prior to installing the Add-On Kit, I set my HotSync/Custom/Mail to Eudora, but nothing happened. I don't know whether simply installing the Add-On Kit would have done the trick, but I highly doubt it. After installing it, I went into the FAQ and read the entry on the sync.ini file. 3. My c:\Palm\"user"\sync.ini file had, under "[Mail]" only "WarnedUnconfigured=1" I don't know what that means or what system Tim Musson has, but I changed the file to read exactly as his sync.ini file. 4. When I next HotSynced, it was the DataViz Email conduit that handled the mail. This was a surprise, but it turned out to be critical. Not only did all of my mail download onto the Palm, but, because it went through DataViz, my attachments all came through also, linked to the mail message and viewable/editable in Documents-To-Go. 5. The many messages in custom folders in TB! (such as \Clients\"Client Name") did not get into the Palm. Only my Inbox went. Perhaps if I had some in the Outbox they would have gone, also, but I don't know. The good news is that TB! inbox messages move. The bad news is that the process does not have the automation of Outlook-related applications. It's necessary to mess with the configuration files. If anyone has an explanation of Musson's .ini lines and the conditions under which the specific entries might have to be changed, please send it to this list.
