Pocket PC Contacts

I dont seem to be able to synchronise all my Contacts from Outlook onto my Pocket PC. When I synchronise only my main contacts folder is recognised and the other folder holding business addresses etc is ignored. Microsoft have come out with a program that only synchronises between folders within Outlook which is of no real use. There was a previous thread concerning this matter but no real solutions?

If it is not possible to accompish this with Outlook, are there any other good e-mail/personal information managers out there that would do the required?

Thank you

I guess the issue is in Pocket PC Outlook which does not seem to support folders.

A workaround might be using categories (or whichever it is called in the English version). Both versions of Outlook support these (you can even have user-defined categories). A given contact may belong to more than one category.

You can display (or sort) your contacts by category, which somehow would provide the same service as folders.

Hope this helps
