This article shows you how to Sync your BlackBerry Mail with Outlook.
By default, the BlackBerry will only sync items which are stored in your Inbox wirelessly. If you have set up server-side rules in Outlook to send e-mail to a subfolder other than your Inbox or you move a message from the Inbox to another folder then it will disappear from your BlackBerry. Although the BlackBerry does have a feature where you can show the folders on the server, it will not sync messages in those folders by default. You must configure the BlackBerry to sync subfolders.
Only messages received after you perform the following steps will sync to your BlackBerry. Any messages filed previously will not be stored on the BlackBerry handheld even after you set the folder redirection properties.
1) On your Blackberry home screen, click Messages.
2) Click the trackwheel to pull up the menu then scroll down and click Reconcile Now. This will ensure that you have a full list of all current Email folders on your Blackberry.
3) Click the trackwheel to pull up the menu then scroll down and click Options.
4) Scroll down and click on Email Settings.
5) Click the trackwheel to pull up the menu then scroll down and click Folder Redirection. (This may take a while to load if you have a lot of folders.)
