PIMbackup 2.8 backs up everything but email.

I did the same thing and it transferred all my contacts from Live - about 400. However, I'm having difficulty keeping my hotmail updated. It initially grabbed all the emails on the setup but now it won't sync up new mail. Strange behavior because my contacts are updating in both directions. How does one get the hotmail "pushed" onto the Diamond.

If anyone has appropriate settings for me, much appreciated.

I'm having the same issue with hotmail not being sent to my diamond... I used to just use IMAP on SprintPCS mail but that's going away in December. The initial sync and test email worked great but I can't get it to sync new emails. Right now I have the sync schedule set to "As Items Arrive". I'm looking around now and will post again if I find anything

Edit: When I first posted, doing a send/receive wasn't getting the updated test messages I'd send to the account. Now I am able to get those messages when I do a manual sync, but if I don't sync the server won't push the message.

Edit 2: Did a soft reset, now push is working. I dunno, I just work here.

Yes, I'm noticing that the updating from Hotmail IS now working intermittently. I got rid of my Telus email and just working with hotmail and regular email now.... no problems.

ANOTHER QUESTION -PIM backup does a good job of backing up contacts.... but how does one backup Favorites in the TF3D tab and the Bookmarks in Opera.

I want to transfer my contacts from my phone to outlook using activesync (or anything better since Im using a XP OS). Where does activesync give the option to transfer from phone to computer and then to switch it back to transfer from computer to phone?
