Mail from Outlook Connector

[Tim Scott Mathews]

Apologies if this has been asked and answered but I've been unable to find
it and the help seems to be circular ie: Outlook Connector help says it's
done in Outlook and Outlook doesn't give me the option I'm looking for.

So....
having just setup Outlook Connector, the program seems to have, by default,
setup my two "connected" accounts--one Hotmail and another MSN--with totally
separate inboxes etc. In each case, they mirror (sorry if there's a
technical term for it which I don't know, I simply mean the inbox, outbox,
sent folders etc) the Hotmail and MSN mail folders appear as though I were
logged onto either of them.

Is it possible to have the inbox messages moved or copied to my "regular"
Outlook inbox? I assumed, when all else seemed to have failed that I could
do it by creating a rule but there doesn't seem to be a way to create a rule
to move or copy all messages in a particular folder to another.

Is this possible?

In case my reason might seem weird or in case someone knows another work
around: it's simply because I like to turn on my system, start my mail run
and have it synch with my PDA while I'm showering etc so I'm ready to head
out the door for work. I'd like to also have my mail from Hotmail and MSN
synched with the PDA without having to manually copy the entire contents of
the two extra inboxes to the Outlook inbox where it has to be to synch with
the PDA.

Thanks,
Tim

No. You can set one as the default mail store and sync with it, but you
can't copy the mail to the local store. (It would remove it from the online
store.)
