Outlook Sync System

Syncronize Calendar & Addressbook data

 

The Beirut Mail Outlook Sync Utility allows users to synchronize Outlook 2000/2003/2007 Contact, Calendar and Task data with any email account hosted by the Beirut Mail server. The synchronization is initiated by the client (Outlook).

 

Support Includes:

  • Outlook 2007, 2003 and 2000 Support
     
  • Synchronization of Contact, Calendar and Task data between the Outlook client and Beirut Mail server
     
  • Support for local accounts created by Beirut Mail, or any external POP3/IMAP account
     
  • MD5 Checksums ensure data integrity during synchronization
     
  • Simple installation utility for desktop-clients
     
  • Optionally synchronize data between the WebMail server using HTTPS
     
Benefits:
  1. When using the WebMail interface away from the office, your existing Calendar, Tasks & Contacts from Outlook are available via the webmail interface.
     
  2. Synchronize your PDA or PocketPC data with Outlook, and have a copy of all your data synchronized to the WebMail server.
     
  3. Add contacts or schedule events, and the data is automatically synchronized between the desktop client running Outlook and the Addressbook / Scheduler in Beirut Mail.
     
  4. Utilize WebMail as a central access point for all your data online -- you no longer need multiple desktop clients on different systems.
Technical Details

The Beirut Mail Outlook Sync Utility is a standalone plugin for Outlook, which is downloaded by the user from the Beirut mail website. The installer package will automatically add the Outlook Sync plugin to Outlook, and will prompt the user to supply their AtMail account login details to synchronize with the server.

Outlook sync will compare Calendar/Task/Contact data between the desktop client and the WebMail server via the HTTP/HTTPS protocol. Using MD5 checksums, the plugin utility can identify new or modified data and synchronize the changes between the client and server.

The WebMail server of Beirut Mail stores Calendar, Task and Contact data in a database. Using the WebMail interface, users can modify data synchronized with Outlook and the changes will be automatically copied back to the desktop client.
