Exchange Active Sync Message Format Problem

Does your meeting and contact complaint above apply to Exchange 2007 as well?

If so, that's a bummer for me

(I'm on a TP, eligible for an upgrade in January, and am thinking about a Hero or TP2).

We just converted to Exchange 2007 from 2003, and that is a nice upgrade for the TP Exchange client. The HTML vs Plain text thing applies to generic Windows Mobile as well, BTW.

The only Exchange app that supports (or should I say adds support for) HTML for Exchange 2003 is Touchdown.

Also tried Moxier, but it's also plain-text for 2003.

That's a good questions. I have not tried yet, but I will let you know.

One other thing that I have found to be lacking, is if I reply from my phone to an email in Exchange it does not show up as a reply on my desktop Exchange client. This was particularly confusing the other day when I was trying to verify that I had in fact sent something.

Seriously ? I can live without meeting cancellation automation but are you saying that sent items cannot be synchronized ?

Now this is a basic feature, if the Hero can't support it then this disqualifies it for business use in my opinion. Can anybody confirm ? I have one on the way.

I just tried sending an e-mail from my phone, and it synced to my Sent folder on my desktop. So it works for me (Exchange 2003).

No, I am not saying that the Hero does not sync the sent items. I ma just used to when I reply to a message the icon changing to an envelope with a reply arrow on it. This is what I am referring too.

Also I have noticed that when you read an item on your Hero, Outlook does not display it as read.

This is very confusing over the weekend when I read like 50 emails and then come back to the office and they are not marked as read.
