This is what i heard from Techsupport on Palm Forums - "Snoozing a Reminder
on a Treo does not remove the checkmark from the reminder which is the only
thing that syncs to Outlook. The Reminders subsystem for Treo runs
completely seperate from the reminders subsystem for Outlook. Also
Activesync does not really interact with Outlook directly but infact
interacts with the PST file via Outlook so unless Outlook is OPEN during sync
changes that are registered in the index file are only things that sync. Now
there could be a problem with muliple index files for Calendar residing on
the Device (ie 2 partnerships set to do calendar) as Microsoft intended 1 PIM
to sync to 1 PC so Contacts can sync to Windows PC, Email can sync to EAS and
Calendar can sync to Windows PC 2 but it was never designed to do Calendar to
mutliple partnerships which could cause a conflict within device. Supressing
reminders in Outlook will transfer that rule to Treo and the only way to
dismiss or snooze a reminder in outlook is if the application is open so if
you travel and shut down Outlook then it is going to exhibit the behavior
your describing. Even if you go into Activesync and uncheck calendar for 1
partnership and checkmark the other partnership you are disassociating the
pim.vol file for the device each time you do that so that will also mess up
any "syncing" of reminder changes such as snoozing or dismissing for that
partnership."
