Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail Mes-
sages
Use Inbox to send and receive e-mail messages in either of these ways:
• Synchronize e-mail messages with Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft
Outlook on your PC.
• Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-
mail server through an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or a network.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchroni-
zation process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync.
For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help
on the PC.
During synchronization:
• Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook
on your desktop computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your
device. By default, you will receive messages from the past three
days only, the first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments
of less than 100 KB in size.
• E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred
to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs.
• E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on
your desktop computer in order to be transferred.
