Kerio Synchronization Plug-in
Kerio Synchronization Plug-in — this application allows synchronization of personal calendar,
contact and notes folders as well as public folders stored in Kerio MailServer. Generally, the
plug-in is used along with IMAP or POP3 protocols to receive email, however, it can be also
used separately, without an email account.
This application is useful especially to users of notebooks who need to work with their email,
calendar and contacts offline. Thus, users can access their data anywhere and handle this data
as needed (change it and if connected to the Internet, they can also synchronize it with data
saved at the server). The application is also useful for those who need download their email
via POP3 or IMAP.
Note: If you want to manage your MS Outlook email accounts also offline and use all MS Outlook
groupware features, install the Kerio Outlook Connector (Offline edition) (for details, refer to
section 6).
It is not necessary to perform the synchronization by hand, but it is possible. Just install
the application once and set the simple dialog. Later synchronizations will be performed
automatically using the parameters set in the dialog.
Kerio Synchronization Plug-in also includes Help which can be triggered from the MS Outlook’s
toolbar. This help can also be found in Start Programs Kerio Synchronization Plug-in.
Kerio Synchronization Plug-in can be applied to the following versions of MS Outlook:
MS Outlook 2000 + version Service Pack 3
MS Outlook XP + version Service Pack 3
MS Outlook 2003 + version Service Pack 2
MS Outlook 2007 + version Service Pack 1
Installation of the Kerio Synchronization Plug-in can be run under Windows 2000 Professional
(version Service Pack 4), XP (version Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2) and Windows Vista (Home,
Business, Enterprise or Ultimate editions).
The Windows OS must include Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher.
Warning: It is not possible to use both Kerio Outlook Connector and Kerio Synchronization
Plug-in within the same profile. Both applications can be installed and used in one MS Outlook,
however, they cannot be both used by one account simultaneously. Kerio Synchronization
Plug-in can synchronize only calendar and contact folders located in MS Outlook’s private
