Hey Joseph,

My MUA believes you used The Bat! (v1.60q) Business
to write the following on Thursday, June 13, 2002 at 1:01:58 AM.

RR>> I, as well, know plenty of people that won't switch to The Bat since it
RR>> doesn't synch to the Palm.

It doesn't sync the address book to the Palm, the Palm-TB! MAPI mail
sync works just fine in my exp. As a matter of fact, in the 1.60 set
they improved it! Used to be that you needed to have TB! the active
app, but now TB! has taken care of it for you. Also, it is faster I
think (never timed it) - My Palm inbox has 230 msgs, and it only takes
a couple of seconds to sync the mail (Pentium III 1.2, and USB port sync).
     Below cut from "What's new in The Bat! 1.60?"
     [-] Focusing problem upon MAPI calls
     [-] Some bugs in the MAPI support subsystem
     
JN> First, TB!'s inbox can go into the Palm. It's not designed to do
JN> that, and the conduits won't support it,

The Palm conduits support using MAPI to sync your mail, so it is
supported, but don't bother asking Palm for support getting it set
up... <g>

JN> but Tim Musson (whose name I hope I didn't misspell too badly)

Nope, got it right on, but can you pronounce it correctly? <g>

JN> has instructions in the Bat! archives

It is also in the FAQ that Marck maintains.

JN> on how to set the user configuration file to load TB! into a Palm.
JN> I do it all the time and it works.

Me to, but I have a separate account for my Palm - looks like it came
from this one though <g> isn't TB! the best!

JN> The AB is different. Personally, I would prefer to have something
JN> fully integrated like Outlook or Notes, but Outlook is not a good
JN> PIM, and Notes is only for larger or more complex organizations
JN> than I am. So I use Lotus Organizer, which is a really good PIM,
JN> and combine it with TB! Simple MAPI should make the Org AB work
JN> seamlessly in TB! (as it does in Eudora and Becky), but no such
JN> luck. So I import it into TB! But I also synch Organizer directly,
JN> so what results is this:

JN> My Palm has all my contacts and it has my inbox (sometimes
JN> attachments, too, but that's another story), as well as tasks,
JN> etc. TB! also has my contacts. It all works together very well,
JN> but it requires a love for this geeky stuff or else a clearly
JN> written guide.

Not a bad solution, but still manual to get in and out of TB! AB...
