Default outlook connector disrupting gmail?

Hi,



I have a very weird problem (no, seriously folks!) which has happened since installing 'outlook connector'. 'Outlook connector' - as most will know - syncs my outlook.com account with my desktop Outlook 2007 (xp pro sp3, quad core etc...).

I recently got a Blackberry Z10 and the only way I can sync it with my desktop is via the 'outlook connector'. But, my primary email address is gmail - for many years - so I don't want to change.

Sooo, the solution that emerged is that I pop3 download my gmail to my Outlook 2007 Personal folder's Inbox and IMAP gmail to my Z10, and I use the 'outlook connector' which MAPI syncs my (desktop) calendar and contacts with my Z10 - via outlook.com. Because outlook.com is an email account it has installed an additional folder in my mail (not in the Personal folder, but in addition to) called outlook.com where it also syncs my Outlook 2007 mail. Phew! If you've got this far please keep reading, I'm nearly there...

And the problem? Some of my downloaded gmail mail goes to the normal Outlook 2007 inbox, as it should, but some mail goes to the outlook.com mailbox (in Outlook 2007) and some mail goes to both!

I have checked the settings in all accounts multiple times for anything amiss, I've looked for patterns in the distribution of the mail and can find nothing. It just seems random that some mail will go one way and some another (and some both).

I suspect that uninstalling 'outlook connector' will solve this, but then I won't have sync with my phone (I am sooo disappointed with the new blackberry).

Any suggestions will be most gratefully received as - I'm sure you'll appreciate - I'm pulling my hair out here!

Thanks,

Peter
