View Full Version : Email addresses lost by Activesync/Outlook

Apologies if this has been answered elsewhere, but I've searched with no luck...

If I write an email on my PPC, hit the send button and then sync with Outlook using Activesync then I find that the email that ends up in Outlook's Outbox (and then in Sent Items once it has been sent) has a bad "From" field in that the email address has been lost, being replaced by a string that just contains the contact's name. For example, if I write an email on my PPC and select the person "Fred Bloggs" from my contact list (who has an email address [email protected]) and then hit the send button then I can see the email OK in my PPC's Outbox. However, once I've sync'd then the email in the Outlook Outbox contains the from field 'Fred Blogs' with no email address. Obviously the email fails to get delivered by Outlook. How can I stop this from happening?

I'm using an HP4150, Windows Mobile 2003, Outlook 2003 with Microsoft Exchange and Activesync 3.8.
