Kerio Synchronization Plug-in

Kerio Synchronization Plug-in — this application allows synchronization of personal calendar,

contact and notes folders as well as public folders stored in Kerio MailServer. Generally, the

plug-in is used along with IMAP or POP3 protocols to receive email, however, it can be also

used separately, without an email account.

This application is useful especially to users of notebooks who need to work with their email,

calendar and contacts offline. Thus, users can access their data anywhere and handle this data

as needed (change it and if connected to the Internet, they can also synchronize it with data

saved at the server). The application is also useful for those who need download their email

via POP3 or IMAP.

Note: If you want to manage your MS Outlook email accounts also offline and use all MS Outlook

groupware features, install the Kerio Outlook Connector (Offline edition) (for details, refer to

section

6

).

It is not necessary to perform the synchronization by hand, but it is possible. Just install

the application once and set the simple dialog. Later synchronizations will be performed

automatically using the parameters set in the dialog.

Kerio Synchronization Plug-in also includes Help which can be triggered from the MS Outlook’s

toolbar. This help can also be found in Start Programs Kerio Synchronization Plug-in.

Kerio Synchronization Plug-in can be applied to the following versions of MS Outlook:

MS Outlook 2000 + version Service Pack 3

MS Outlook XP + version Service Pack 3

MS Outlook 2003 + version Service Pack 2
