MS Office Forum / Outlook / Contacts / March 2007Activities view in contacts - change folder to pull from
My activities tab in contacts is currently pulling data from the Sent Items folder in my Personal Folders account. I use a different account for my inbox since I am using IMAP. If I change to using the Sent Items folder in my IMAP account, can I then have the Activities read from this new folder, or will it only read from the Personal Folders Sent Items folder? No, an Activities group cannot read across data stores.

That's the nature of IMAP accounts. Their data is in a separate information store. You could consider using a rule to copy items from the IMAP inbox to your default Inbox.
