    I have used MSExchange for the last 5 years and I really like it. I have used it at school and at work and on multiple devices and I love that my email / calendar and notes are always upto sync.

    For my personal email I have a Pop3 account through my cable provider (Optonline). Is there anyway for me to setup some software that would sync my personal Pop webmail / Outlook and my cellphone (WM 5.0) along the lines of an exchange server? Free option would be great but I dont mind spending some money if I can get a seamless solution.

    Thanks!

    Thanks but correct me if I am wrong but with Activesync will not work if I want everything (Web / Outlook and Cellphone) to be synced on the fly simoltaneously i..e. with no physical connecting. I was thinking that I could buy some webspace - like 1gig and use that as an exchange server if there was somne freeware software, etc?
