Default [Q] ActiveSync and Exchange sub-folders

Has anyone figured out a way to select which sub-folders sync to the device? It seems like the mail client chooses sub-folders at random. So instead of getting my business sub-folders which I really need, I get my Junk Mail folder and Outbox. Whoopee! And you can't even move emails from the inbox to a sub-folder???

And yes, I know about Touchdown. But I guess us tightwads who don't want to shell out $20 for what was already supposed to be there have to wait for the Froyo ROM.

JH2 ROM, rooted, etc. Just got my Captivate two weeks ago. Haven't been on XDA since my i-mate Jam five years ago. Good to be back.

I have an issue worse then that...

I have rules and alerts setup on my exchange to move new email to folders per user or per vendor or company, left unread. The native mail client can't handle any of that. I have since disabled all rules and have the email come to the inbox. Then every friday i run the rules at once to cleanup my inbox. It isn't to bad, but annoying. Wish the email was a bit more complex then what it is...

I have tried touchdown and it is OK. I had to remove it because it was just getting so slow. It took over 3 seconds from pressing the send button before the screen would change. It drove me nuts.

you may have to do what I did and just have a huge inbox.
