Can someone please explain something basic to me about the way Outlook
works. I'm a Mac user and not familiar with this thing but now need to
figure out how to synchronize it with a PocketPC PDA device.
We've got Outlook on our PCs (W2K), connected to an Exchange server. So,
I see my calendar and contacts, which I know live on the server. But when I
sync my device, it ends up empty. Is there some sort of "local" (to my PC)
data that it's using instead of the Exchange server's info? If so, where is
it and how do I find it? If I could find it, I could copy the Exchange
server info into it. Or does it not work that way (having local info and
server info separately)?

Hi - this is really more of an Exchange Activesync - or PocketPC question,
than an Outlook one.

I suggest you post with more detail to microsoft.public.exchange.admin and
maybe crosspost to microsoft.public.pocketpc - mention your version of
Exchange, your version of Windows Mobile, and whether you have a self-signed
certificate on your network (as opposed to a Thawte or Verisign, etc., SSL
cert).
