Rss Feeds Folder isn't listed for sync

[news.microsoft.com]

Hello!

I've just installed Office 2007 and although I can't activate it (It seems
to be a common problem
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...find+connection&rnum=2&hl=en#ab995c848bb04fb8)
I cannot sync feeds from RSS Feeds folder with my PocketPC - ActiveSync
doesn't list this folder on Settings form.

I'm sure that such functionality is needed by many others.

Could someone from Microsoft enlighten this situation.

Thanx,
Sergey Polyakov

active sync doesn't support that folder type.

I've understand that
Although Properties for RSS Feeds says that Type of folder - containing Mail
and Post items.

possibly a future version

I'd like to hear more concrete vision from developers.

you'll need to ask about it in a ppc forum - one where the active sync devs
might actually visit.

I thought that I could create the rule which will moves all rss posts to
usual folder, but condition
"from any RSS feed" cannot be checked and condiction "from RSS with
specified text" doesn't allow specify text.

BTW, what is right place to submit bugs? This news?
http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/ProductFeedback/ is good service but not for
Office

RSS feeds don't come through the inbox, so they aren't affected by rules.
They go directly to the folders. You can redirect them to other folders in
the account setup but I don't think it will help in this situtation. your
best bet is to use an different RSS reader. (I can sync newsgator feeds). i
use Ol2007 against Exchange mailbox and open it with Ol2003 as well - the
RSS folder is not available for syncing from 2003 - probably because of the
special mapi properties added to it. If you view the folder properties using
OutlookSpy, you'll see it's not a standard mail and post folder.

Follow the bug reporting instructions for the source of your copy - AFAIK,
there is no bug reporting tool for those using the public preview.

BTW - is this with activesync 3.8 or 4.x? not that I expect 4.x to support
it either, since it came out before Office.

Look at New Rule - there are new rules for RSS feeds.

I think that Outlook should become the best RSS reader.
