1. My experience with Outlook is that it will do an excellent job of picking up info from other MS mail programs. I've converted from Vista's Mail but not to Outlook, but I'd be shocked if Outlook could not capture Categories from Mail when it captured them from my Palm Desktop. This part should work fine.
2. As for syncing with the Windows Mobile device, I suspect your options will be to sync Contacts or not. Here I could be wrong, but I do not believe you can sync a portion of your Contacts. Suggest you check on a MS Outlook-specific forum in the Office or Windows communities.

Good Luck!
Thanks for the post and bump. I suspect you're right about Outlook being able to handle and capture Categories. I imagine I'll be able to figure it out when I install it, but wanting to save some time and aggravation thought I'd check if anybody knew about it from experience. Good suggestion about checking on the Outlook boards.

And I'm worried that Contact Sync with a WM device could be an all or nothing, with no ability to select which Categories of contacts I want included. I guess it wouldn't be the end of the world to have those 600+ contacts on my TP2; just some wasted storage space. Anybody know for sure about this?

And regarding my photography - I had edited my signature yesterday to show some links, and thought it would have shown up in any prior posts. It does with the new ones, so the links to my site and workshops are below - thanks for asking!
