6.6.10 PIM Synchronization
The PIM Synchronization service can be used by a remote device to synchronize its
Personal Information Manager (PIM) database with the PIM database of this computer..
Four data types are supported:
•
Business cards
•
Calendar items
•
Email messages
•
Notes.
Whether an individual item is accepted and where it is stored, when accepted, is configured
in the PIM Item Transfer service. If that service is not configured to store a particular data
type in Outlook, then that data type cannot be synchronized.
NOTE: Data types that will be synchronized must be saved in the PIM database (this is
configured in the PIM Item Transfer service); otherwise, that data type will not be
available for selection (it will be grayed out) in the PIM Synchronization
configuration settings.
Microsoft Outlook permits duplicate entries, so all duplicates may not be exchanged in the
synchronization process.
NOTE: Only Outlook’s default contacts folder is synchronized. Items in sub-folders are not
synchronized. Items that are moved from the default folder to a sub-folder will
appear to have been deleted the next time synchronization takes place.
