Angry Business Connect

Im (and my corp tech guy) are trying to set up my treo so that my email is sent instantly instead of having the treo check every 15min. What am i missing? Can the treo not receive emails instantly? (using microsoft exchange server at work)

In the "schedule" section of the prefrences menu (should be the same spot that you have a 15 min. sync set), choose "push messages to my device." This will fire an SMS to your Treo whenver a new email hits your PC. The SMS will then cause Business Connect to sync with your mailbox.

Absolutely hate the BC Software

Yeah the emails look nicer when dealing with them but I much prefer working them in realtime. Just websurf to http://bcee.sprintpcs.com and view your mail in realtime. The software always ticks me off.. I had problems with it on an I330 and my Treo 600. Never have problems going to the site directly. (well... as long as the darn connection is working.)

Really!? I think the BC Palm client is quite elegant and intuitive. I've used a few different "desktop redirectors" and haven't found anything as good as BC - especially for the money.

When sending an email with BC, does it still include a tag line at the end of the email?

Talking

I think SPCS Business Connection is the best for the money since it doesn't cost anymore over what your charged in your bill. I usually experience a delay of about ten-fifteen minutes when receiving my corporate mail. That's not a big enough delay to make me upset. I just wish it was compatible with viewing jpegs and gifs. That's kind of a problem for me since I receive pictures often.

Send a message via Yahoo to rossarmstrong
I use it from home with Outlook. My phone receives an email within 2 minutes of my destop.

I am being charged $5/month for BC.

My only pet peeve is that I cannot cut/copy/paste anything within an email in the Treo BC app. If I use the regular email app to go out and retrieve my mail, the cut/copy/paste etc. features can be used.

Anybody else have this same limitation or is there some setting that I have overlooked?
