Outlook does not apply a category by default - it can by rules but AFAIK,
rules don't run on sync or apply to anything except mail.

Can I set a default category so that any time an event is created by my
syncing mechanism (Blackberry Desktop Manager) the new events are assigned
to
that category?
Thanks!
