Calendar/mail in PC/iPhone

k3lvc

I feel like I'm banging my head against a brick wall with SWMBO at the moment so for the purposes of the thread read 'I' as 'She'

I have an iPhone 4S and I use MS Outlook at home with a BTinternet email address. Obviously if I don't read my personal emails on my phone and they're downloaded by Outlook they never appear on the phone and I never get chance to deal with them that way.

'I' would like a way of ensuring that what's on my phone is mirrored on the PC.

Is this available via a setting in Outlook or is there a better way of having a generic (and still intuitive) calendar/email that would sync seamlessly with iPhone (I suffer the multiple calendar bug when syncing).

Hopefully this is explained simply but if not and you were starting from scratch what email/calendar tool would you use that gave seamless interaction between PC and iPhone ?

I think the easiest way is to set up each account using IMAP rather than POP3 (which I assume you're using now).

With POP it downloads the messages off the server so only one device will get them. Whereas with IMAP they will stay on the server and a copy is downloaded onto each device. You can then delete whatever you want from the server and the other devices will sync.
