3. How do I assign Outlook's® Categories within Good Mobile Messaging?

   You can use categories to organize your contacts by assigning contacts to various groups. Once you have assigned categories, you can sort or view contacts by category. Good Mobile Messaging includes a set of preset categories to which you can assign your contacts or you can create new categories to suit your needs. If you add a new category in Outlook on your desktop, it will be added to the list of categories on your handheld. The reverse is also true.

Troubleshooting

1. Good Mobile Messaging is synchronizing my Inbox but none of my other folders in Outlook® are synchronizing. How do I make other folders synchronize?

   By default, all new email messages delivered to the Inbox in Outlook or Lotus® Notes® will appear on your handheld. However, if Outlook or Lotus Notes is set up to filter incoming messages to a folder other than the Inbox, you must set that up on your handheld as well. Otherwise, new email messages sent to that folder will not appear on the handheld, even if you manually move them to another folder.
   
   To synchronize messages filtered to other folders: 
   
   

   1. Select "Good Messaging Preferences" from the menu in the Email window; a list of preferences appears. 
   2. Select "Email Delivery;" a list of folders appears.
   3. To add a folder to the list, choose "Add Folder" from the menu; a list of your email folders appears. 
   4. Navigate to and select the folder you want to add.
   
   You can't add the Sent Items, Deleted Items, Outbox, or Drafts folders to the list. These folders have pre-defined synchronization behavior. Incoming messages filtered to this folder will now appear on your handheld.
