You mean just to have the mail transfer during a hotsync? From the Handspring website:

Q. I have a Macintosh. Is there any way for me to synchronize my email?

A. Mail synchronization on the Macintosh is only available through optional, third-party solutions sold separately. For example, Actual Software offers the MultiMail Conduit Pack which supports Outlook Express, Eudora PRO and Eudora Lite. For more details, contact Actual Software at www.actualsoft.com.

That's the only info I could find. Maybe someone knows of a better way.

I'm using MultiMail Pro III to sync my mail from OE 5.02 on my iBook SE to my Visor Deluxe - it works pretty well after some tweaking... I think there were a couple of threads on this a while back on this board. I don't know of an AOL-compatible solution though.

The multimail conduit is the way I had to go. It was $30 but Palm jacked the price up to $40 when they bought ActualSoft. I was hoping that meant Mac e-mail compatibility out of the box, but Palm is just sitting on it from what I've seen so far. It's a good thing I bought the conduit before Palm got a hold of it, otherwise I would've searched for a different third party app instead.

Multimail Conduit is $30 and Demo may be enough...

Multimail Conduit for Mac Demo will sync 250 characters and is a free download. I cant imagine composing a larger message with a stylus on the Visor so it works for me for free!

MAIL ON A MAC

Sounds like these conduits are for syncing to desktop mail apps and not to web based email clients.

Isn't AOL web based or is the email actually downloaded to a desktop app?
