Account names appear as folders in the folder list (located on the left, under
the navigation bar) in the Messaging message list.
With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the CN3 Inbox
and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or
Microsoft Outlook.
When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to
connect to your Internet service provider (ISP) or a modem card to connect
to the local area network to which your e-mail server is connected. You can
also use your phone to connect by using a cellular line connection. For
more information, see the next page.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
After selecting Messaging for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail
messages are synchronized as part of the general synchronization process.
During synchronization:
• Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the
Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your CN3. (Note that
you can only synchronize information directly with an Exchange Server
if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Information Server 2002
or later.) By default, you receive messages from the last three days only,
the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than
100 KB in size.
• Messages in the Outbox folder on your CN3 are transferred to Exchange
or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
• The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a
message on your CN3, it is deleted from your desktop the next time you
synchronize.
• Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are
synchronized only if they were selected for synchronization in
ActiveSync.
For information on initiating Messaging synchronization or changing
synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or tap Start >
Help, then select a topic.
Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
Each e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy with
five default folders: “Inbox,” “Outbox,” “Deleted Items,” “Drafts,” and
“Sent Items.” The messages you receive and send through the mail account
are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each
hierarchy. The “\Deleted Items” folder contains messages that were deleted
on the CN3. The behavior of the “\Deleted Items” and “\Sent Items”
folders depends on the Inbox options you have chosen.
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.
