Hi Mastah,
Thanks for the response. I'll try to answer your questions in order.
I only have Outlook installed on one computer, my laptop. I'm not very familiar with the intricacies of WM5 and activesync, but if I do have another computer with outlook to sync to, isn't it going to create another computer account and another instance of the same e-mails?
In the course of my work, I get text files automatically mailed to me from Unix servers, the text files are very small, so 1k covers it.
I haven't tried syncing without attachments, but when I synced for the first time after the R&R, it completed the e-mails properly, but started bogging down when it started on the attachments.
I'm using outlook 2003
I did try detect and repair, but not a complete re-install of Office. The last time we had to go through this, I reinstalled office completely.
When you sync e-mail with attachments, how long does it take you? I really dont believe that it can take over 1 minute per attachment (we timed it) to simply transfer a small file. The connection is USB 2, so the bottleneck cant be the physical connection. It might help me if I knew how long it takes for a *normal* setup to sync attachments.
Thanks for the help on this!
