Quick Start and known issues

Let's assume you have mail server which uses Exchange Active Sync Protocol and you can sync using mobile client on Windows Phone, Windows Mail, Android, IoS but unfortunately, by design, you can't with Outlook.. After installing my AddIn you have to press:

  • Sync Online buton entering neccessary informations
  • Pick Windows Mail Directory Up buton and choosing right directory (inbox or sent items) to convert mail to msg format of Outlook program
  • Import to Outlook button to import emails to choosen directory of Outlook folder structure

BTW Don't forget to clean up emails (move to another folder or archive) in your Outlook folder - because it slows down syncing emails, having thousands of emails slows down finding duplicates to avoid inserting same emails again and again

Known issues

  • I haven't discovered yet how properly set sync period time in Exchange Active Sync protocol, so sometimes my program is syncing mails not as you may expect - program is choosing shorter or longer period of time, especially when you are syncing Sent Items folder, don't have idea how to fix it at the moment
  • If your language has special national characters, encoded emails might be decoded not properly - let me know if you have problems because it is needed to fill table inside code then.
