# sylpheed-claws-gtk2-synce-plugin(1)

Windows CE device synchronization plugin.

## NAME

sylpheed-claws-gtk2-synce-plugin — Windows CE device synchronization plugin.

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the  **sylpheed-claws-gtk2-synce-plugin**

This manual page was written for the **Debian** distribution  because the original program does not have a manual page.

**sylpheed-claws-gtk2-synce-plugin** is a plugin (loadable module) for   Sylpheed-Claws GTK2 mailer.

This plugin assists in keeping the addressbook of a Windows CE  device (Pocket PC/ iPAQ, Smartphone etc) in sync with Sylpheed-Claws'  addressbook, with respect to email addresses.

It doesn't do real automatic syncing, like Microsoft's  ActiveSync and others.

It adds a menu "SynCE" to the Tools menu, which does the   following:

For every email address that is in the WinCE device and not in   Sylpheed-Claws' addressbook, offer to add it to Sylpheed-Claws'   addressbook or alternatively, just provide a list of such email   addresses

For every email address in SylpheedClaws' addressbook, check if it   also exists on the WinCE device. Provide the user with a list of email   addresses that are in Sylpheed-Claws' addressbook but not on the WinCE   device.

Note that no direct writing access to the WinCE device is supported  (so far).

## USAGE

Before using a plugin you must instruct Sylpheed-Claws to load  it on startup.

For this you must go \`\`*Configuration*'' menu  on main window toolbar, open \`\`*Plugins...*'' dialog, click on  the \`\`*Load plugin...*'' button and select the plugin file,  named **synce\_plugin.so**, and press the   \`\`*Open*'' button.
