AT&T Tilt Xpress Mail Calendar

[jboz]

I am using Xpress Mail [which I believe is Seven v.6] to push my work email and calendar items to my Tilt. It works fine except for 2 annyoing integration issues. 1. Xpress Mail uses a separate calendar than the Outlook calendar instead of integrating the two so that on my Today screen on the phone I need to enable both the Outlook calendar and the Xpress Mail calendar. This takes up 2 lines and often is repetative. 2. The Outlook calendar will list upcoming appoiintments several days in advance so it can remind you of upcoming appts. The Xpress Mail calendar only will show the appointment on the day of the appointment. It would be nice if it gave at least an extra day notice so that when I check the today screen the night before I know I have a meeting in the morning.

Does anybody here know of a way to tweak to reg so that the Xpress Mail calendar entries are integrated into the Outlook calendar?

Or, if not, then is there a way to have Xpress Mail show appointments prior to the actual day just like the Outlook calendar?

Also, there is a Seven v.7 beta of Xpress Mail that is supposed to be better. Does anybody know if this has been fixed in v.7 beta?

Thanks.

I just found out about emoze after your post. I noticed that they support Gmail - which I use (Google Hosted) for my domains. Are there any real advantages to using emoze to push emails from Gmail vs. POP?

How does emoze handle calendar entries from non Outlook sources such as Lotus Notes? You may not know if you just sync with Outlook. Do all calendar entries get integrated into the Outlook calendar on the device or is there a separate calendar like in XpressMail?

I used Seven's beta of Version 7 on my 8525 and now on my Tilt. It uses the built in databases for Calendar and Contacts. It is beta, but I have found that it works great and is stable. In version 6, I hated not being able to sync contacts and I had turned off the calendar sync because I didn't want to have two different databases plus their calendar app was crap (as you pointed out). Version 7 fixed that by using the internal database. Additionally, if you have Outlook Web Access, you won't need to keep a PC on conneted to your work network. (We don't, so I couldn't use that new feature). You will need to sign up and apply for the beta if you want to use it. Here is the link: http://community.seven.com/forum/main.php. No, I am not affiliated with Seven, just like their product. Also, I tried emoxe, but could never get it to work reliably.

I replied a nice long thorough reply to your post on HoFo. Basically it says Seven's beta rocks. I've used Emoze and Xpress Mail. Both suck in comparison to Seven. See my post there:

Similarly, even though I now sing Seven Beta's praises, I am not affiliated with them in any way. And I can prove that via my posts on the Seven msg support board :) which I also provide linkage to.
