Hey all,

My WIDCOMM BT software has something called IrMC Synchronization and one of its features is e-mail sync with Outlook Express. Now I don't have a POP account set up in the phone or any of that, so any e-mail I draft just sits in the Outbox. When I sync using My Bluetooth Places, shouldn't that jump to the Outbox of Outlook Express on the PC? Please someone correct me if I'm wrong.. what it does do is throw my phonebook into Outlook contacts.

Also, there's a Network Access feature which isn't the same as Dial-Up Networking...what this offers is "allow other devices to make a private network" with my PC or even to access internet/LAN over it. I'm currently internet sharing over LAN... the software says I have to set up ICS first and I can technically get it to go over Bluetooth connection instead of my LAN - will this mean that I can browse internet on the phone using the computer's connection (and hence free AND slightly faster)

Any suggestions please, email me d_goradetsky@hotmail.com as I'm utter BT lamer.

Cheers peeps,

Dem

It helps to say what phone you are using

On T610, you can't browse wap over bluetooth. (this is supported only on P800)
When you synchronize, the mail is not transfered. When you get the mail on the phone, it's not deleted from the server by default, so you should get the same mail on the PC...
When you sync using BT, contacts/calendar/tasks can be synced...

Hey, thanks for the clarification... I just thought it might sync e-mail because under settings it does offer some sorta of e-mail support with Outlook Express.

Its real annoying because I use hotmail which the phone presumably cannot access. So the P800 can browse the net over BT? Well I still don't have regrets for goin with T610 over it
