Re: Sync'ing the calendar with a PST file

Hi,

Category based sync feature in ActiveSync is not available with WM 5.0
devices. The device will always sync with the default Calendar folder and
therefore even you have create a new calendar, its not going to be possible
to set it to receive the non-work related appointments using ActiveSync.

Third-party software like http://www.chapura.com/pmp_wm.php should help
solve your problem but then I guess even that would also be a strict NO at
your workplace.
