Ming,

“…calendar & tasks will sync between Outlook and BB only when Wireless Reconcile is turned off, any take on this?”
This is not a true statement as you are using BES.

“My company has BES, mails deleted from my BB will be sync to my Outlook, but not the other way round, anything i’m missing here?”
For this one I will quote Jace -
“For problem on deleting email – on the blackberry – messages – email reconciliation – Delete on – Mailbox and Handheld (or you wanted to change to delete on handheld only)
Wireless Reconcile – On
On confilicts – Mailbox Wins”

You should be able to find the settings by hitting the BlackBerry menu – while in your BB Mail application – then you should find the preferences mentioned above – and choose, Delete on – choose Mailbox and Handheld.

If things do not synchronize, you may need to remove your Outlook profile from your computer and re-add it – or perhaps better ask your Administrator for assistance.

Best of Luck,
Ron

Unable to sync my road runner outlook to BB curve 8300. Can’t remember how I did it with my other curve 8300. So frustrating!

At one point I was able to make the choice to either delete email messages on just my Blackberry device, or to delete on both the Blackberry and my laptop. Now, for some reason, I am only able to delete each individually. Why do you think that is, and how can I change it back to be able to actually use the choice that pops up?

Great post – would be a live saver for BIS users.
I have a question, though, before starting setting it up: does this way of syncing allow you to see the personal folders in Gmail or the linked account, along with old emails in the inbox?

Sjoerd – You need to check option of “Leave a copy on server” in outlook than you will be able to receive emails on both BB and outlook.

@Sjoerd – You are using Gmail as the backend, but not for their @gmail.com address. This is a business account so you supply your own domain name. Mine is admin@cagintranet.com – it uses this process – and all my clients or friends see is that address.

Hi, I just received my BB9000 for biz purposes. When receiving emails, it seems that it only receives it either in oulook OR on the BB.

Also, with the sync process you describe here, can the receiver see that your email comes through a gmail account? cause that wouldnt look very professional to clients.. Thanks!
