There is a "email"-Button directly on the bottom of my post.

I'll post the contacts in 5 minutes time, in the meanwhile I'd like to know what's written about categories.. it's written in German and can't understand if it is an exclusion or inclusion method.

I think you shoul support both....

Sorry - its inclusion method. I think its enought - the exactly description is: Add new contacts from Outlook only if they contains one of the following categories:

Hum.... I'dont know if it is easier to stick to the contrary... In my case I use a dozen categories and to make it easier I've used the 'NoSync' category, so I only need to specify to exclude 'NoSync'.....

You could add a 'minus' sign that beheaves like the '+' but excludes what you select?

BTW did you receive the zip file? I've got a reply from the mail server that the messages has been delayed...

I will think about it.

I got no mail from you. My mailaddy: fj.wechselberger<at>gmx.at

Sorry, I've been trying since 2 days, using multiple email accounts but still get error from the mail server....

"This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

Unable to deliver message to the following recipients, due to being unable to connect successfully to the destination mail server.

I really don't know whats going wrong with my mailserver. I get per day 10 up to 20 mails, so i don't think my mailserver is down. Today i got the mail with your five contacts - be sure i need this only for debugging - if its fixed the file will be deleted from my PC.

Hy there - i updated the betaversion - your 5 entrys should be synced now correctly

Anmeldedatum: 17.07.2006 Beiträge: 127

Arr.... did try, but still 4 entries untouched popping out... should I send MPE's log by email?

BTW How do you enable the speaker on incoming call?

Verfasst am: Do Sep 14, 2006 21:27

Thats really annoying.
Please export the 4 contacts - the ones in myPhoneExplorer and the ones in Outlook and send it once more to me. I cannot believe it - with my Outlook and my phones (k700, W800, K800) it worked perfect.

You can enable the speaker if you click on the speakersymbol during a call.

Not very intuitive....but it works!

Hmmmm. just wondering, why is this not very intuitive? It's exactly what you need to do on the phone itself.

Anmeldedatum: 17.07.2006 Beiträge: 127

Maybe it would be easier if you could show a checkbox in the dialog where you accept the incoming call with "Speaker on" as a description, so you could answer and switch simultaneously to speaker on like:

then in the next dialog:

But SE Phones do not support answering a call directly with speaker on. You first have to answer the call and after that you are able to switch on the speaker.
So if the phone does not support this, how should mpe do that?

@blutarsky: The option tp enable the speaker works throug emulating the phones keyboard, so its not possible to read out the current state.
I updated the betaversion - once more, i think the sync should work correct now. Btw. MPE is not able to sync e-mail-addresses which are saved on a LDAP-Server (better known as MS Exchange Directory)

I'm using MPE with both local (.pst) data and remote (Exchange Server and offline folders) it works perfectly apart thos 4 contacts (that are local into the .pst) I'll have a go with the latest beta

Huh. You are talking about emails. Arrr. yes it looks like........well it isn't a problema at all!!

Verfasst am: So Sep 24, 2006 20:24
