Can you tell me what happens when you try synchronizing?

Hi Tim

When I sync, any changes I've made in Astrid, gets sent to the Remember the Milk website, however, changes I've made on the RTM website were not getting sent to Astrid.

Thx

Is there anything special with your setup that I should know about? Any reason you suspect this is happening? What kind of changes are you making on the RTM website?

My goal is to be ble to email my to do lists to rtm & then for rtm to sync those to my droid. What i'm trying to avoid is having to retype everything into my droid.

I did make it work again. I revised due dates on rtm & then those synced to my droid!

Thx anyway.

Ok, yeah there's a bug with RTM where creating tasks by e-mail doesn't play well with Astrid. One thing you can do is include a due date in your e-mail (http://www.rememberthemilk.com/help/answers/sending/emailinbox.rtm), which makes it work with Astrid automatically. Or, you can do what you've been doing, which is to open up RTM and edit the task in some way.

We're gonna try to look into this issue in the future, but I have a feeling it's on the RTM side of things and may not be easily fixable. Glad to know your problem was solved.

Can you help with this problem?
