Any free software to sync outlook files without Exchange/zimbra...
-
Hello all, I've been using Easy2Sync for a long time, but now I've updated my laptop to Windows 8.1 (which it looks nice by now) and this piece of software is not working anymore. Do you know of a similar software that could work in Windows 8.1 without spending money on it? The requirement would be to be able to synchronize e-mails, tasks, contacts and calendar between two computers. Computer A could start the software which would take a while synchronizing A and B computers. Any hint here? I've used public sync tool years ago, but it has stopped being compatible too with Windows 8 and moreover it forces outlook to be open in both computers. I would prefer a free solution that would work at file level (with PST files). No automation needed, only start it and wait for it to finish. As always, thank you in advance! :thumbsup:

I looked for this for some time a while back and concluded: 1) There isn't a good solution for free; 2) There isn't really a great solution at all; and 3) The whole PST file concept (like every other mailbox format that uses a single, gargantuan file) is faulty. One file per email, a directory full of those files instead of a PST file, would solve the entire problem by allowing simple, generic file synchronization to work perfectly as email synchronization. Contacts, appointments, and tasks could be done the same way. Too bad no truly good email clients exist, either, leaving Outlook + Taglocity the most decent inadequate solution out there, so I'm still stuck with PST files for the time being.

At the end I've replaced the way we are working and switched from POP3 to IMAP... now all the e-mails get in synch... and all the other things will be switched soon to google services so they'll be also in synch. Thank you!
