4 ActiveSync ActiveSync Help Concepts About Microsoft ActiveSync How To Connect to a PC Set Up Remote Synchronization Start and Stop Synchronization About Microsoft ActiveSync With Microsoft ActiveSync on both your PC and mobile device, you can exchange information between a PC or server and your device. To synchronize your device with your PC, you must install ActiveSync on the PC.
You can synchronize information between your mobile device and a server if your company is running Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync.

Manage Wireless Synchronization Costs To manage the cost of synchronizing wirelessly from your device, you must balance the following considerations: Battery life Network connection or data transfer costs How up-to-date you want your information to be Maximize battery life Each time your device synchronizes, some of the stored battery power is used. Setting up ActiveSync to synchronize frequently on a schedule or automatically when items arrive uses more battery power than synchronizing manually.
If your device is set to synchronize automatically when items arrive, ActiveSync uses SMS messaging behind the scenes to communicate to your device when an item has arrived. Depending on your rate plan, SMS messages may have costs associated with them on a per-message basis or as a monthly allotment. To reduce SMS messaging costs associated with this feature, schedule synchronization automatically when items arrive during times when mail volume is low.
Connect to a PC Connect to a PC via a cable or cradle Connect to a PC via infrared Connect to a PC via a cable or cradle Connect your device and PC via a cable or cradle to start synchronization.

19 Inbox Inbox Help Concepts How To Connect to a Mail Server About Inbox Read and Respond to About Synchronizing Inbox Messages About Folders Compose and Edit Messages Create or change a signature Customize Inbox Use Keyboard Shortcuts About Inbox You can receive Internet e-mail messages in Inbox. Internet e-mail messages are sent by using an address you receive from your Internet service provider (ISP) or your employer.
With synchronization, messages are synchronized between the device Inbox and the PC Inbox by using ActiveSync and Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook. For more information, see About Synchronizing Inbox. When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, you use a modem to connect to your Internet service provider (ISP), or a modem or Ethernet card to connect to the local area network that your e-mail server is connected to.
Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchronized only if they have been selected for synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on initiating Inbox synchronization or changing synchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on the PC. See Also: About Inbox About Folders Each e-mail account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items.
messages are missing from the device Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the device. If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your device or PC.
Set up or change an account To set up an account: To set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account, tap Accounts > New Account. Follow the instructions in the New Account Wizard. To change options for an account: 1. Tap Accounts > Accounts. 2. Tap the name of the account, and follow the instructions on the screen. To delete an account: 1. Tap Accounts > Accounts. 2. Tap and hold the name of the account, and then tap Delete. You can set up several e-mail accounts including your ActiveSync account.

If Auto configuration is unsuccessful, contact your ISP or network administrator for the following information: Account type POP3 or IMAP4 server name Domain name (for network connections only) Once you have the above information, continue with the New Account wizard.
E-Mail Setup 1. In Incoming mail, enter the name of your e-mail server. 2. In Outgoing mail, enter the name of your Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) host. 3. If you are using a network connection, in Domain, enter your domain name. Tap Options to access additional settings. For example: Change the time intervals for downloading new messages. Download attachments. Limit the amount of messages downloaded.
Options If your outgoing e-mail server (SMTP) requires authentication, select Outgoing e-mail server requires authentication. To ensure you always connect using an SSL connection, select Require SSL connection. Connections that use SSL allow you send personal information safely. To save memory, limit the number of e-mails that are downloaded to your device by lowering the number of days to display. You can also increase this number.
Receiving entire messages consumes storage memory. The size column in the message list displays the local size and server size of a message. Even when a message has been downloaded fully, these numbers may differ because the size of a message can vary between the server and the device.
Reply to or forward a message 1. Open the message, tap , and then tap Reply, Reply All, or Forward. 2. Enter your response. To quickly add common messages, tap My Text and tap a desired message. 3.

If you receive messages through synchronization, start ActiveSync on your PC, click File, click Mobile Device, and then select your mobile device.
Receive meeting requests If you receive your e-mail messages through ActiveSync, you will automatically receive meeting requests.
