Re: Sync on two computers?



Email sync in the PPC syncs two folders of the device with two folders of
the computer: the Inbox and the Outbox. Inbox will sync received messages
from the computer to the device, Outbox will sync messages that need to be
sent from the device to the computer.

Please note that any other folders, or even sub-folders of these two, will
not be sync'ed.
