Pocket PC will not synch "a program is trying to access email..." warning.

[John Smith]

I am trying to synch my PocketPC (Jornada 548 running PPC2000) with Outlook
2003 SP1. I keep getting the "A program is trying to access email messages
you have stored in Outlook" message. I am running the latest ActiveSynch
3.7.1. Basically this prevents me from synching remotely or over my network
unless I am right there at the PC to let it though. I don't think this
should be happenning but I have yet to find a way to disable it or to secure
ActiveSynch for access. My wife's Palm Vx using Hotsynch manager 4.0.1 does
the same thing but I kind of expected current Microsoft products to play
together a bit better. Any ideas?

This is the dialogue box and issue BTW:

Thanks,

You may get a better answer in microsoft.public.pocketpc or
m.p.pocketpc.activesync.

My wife's Palm Vx using Hotsynch manager 4.0.1 does the same thing

Has she checked with the vendor of Hotsynch Manager? There may be an update
for that.

The Activesynch group directed me here since it was an outlook flag but from
everything I've read there is no disabling it and AS should just work.

It is my experience that AS "just works". It worked for OL 2000 SP3, OL
2002 SP3, and now for OL 2003 SP1. I've never seen that message.

As a work around, you can always get "Express ClickYes". Google.
