Novell GroupWise Mobility Service 2.0

Situation

Attachments from appointments do not sync to device

Resolution

This is a documented limitation of Mobility that can be found in the GroupWise Mobility Service 2.1 Readme.

12.13 Attachments on Appointments

Attachments on appointments are not supported on mobile devices. When you accept an appointment that has attachments, the attachments are removed as the appointment is added to the calendar on your mobile device.

As a workaround, you can delegate the appointment to yourself, accept the original appointment into your calendar, and retain the delegated appointment as an email item with attachments.
