    How to Sync Evolution w\ WM6 in Hardy

    Hello folks. I've been trying to get WM6 to sync with Evolution since it would seem to be supported but I haven't the foggiest how. I have gotten opensync and synce running fine and syncs have been succcessful. How do I do e-mail?

    Ideas?

    I guess you can't. Opensync isn't mature enough. I talked with Jc2k and he said that pretty much. Sorry folks. I guess I will have to configure my IMAP through GMail to work easier.

    Alright here is what I basically did:

    1) Enable GMail's IMAP service.
    2) Configure Thunderbird and my phone to download e-mail according to GMail's instructions. (If you have 6.1, don't accept the default settings. To bypass you want to enter your email address as something invalid like a@a. After that continue to follow directions.)
    3) If you have a ton of e-mails like me, use the filters to archive e-mails and set it up so that it doesn't show in the Inbox.
    4) On the phone, go to your Inbox, click Menu->Tools->Manage Folders and you can check which folders you want to synchronize. Just don't do the folders you have archived older e-mails.
    5) Enjoy!
