118 Mail and Messaging
7.1 E-mail and Text Messages
Messaging is where all of your e-mail accounts and your text message
account are located. You can send and receive Outlook e-mail, Internet
e-mail through an Internet service provider (ISP), as well as text (SMS)
messages using your mobile phone network. You can also access
e-mail from work using a VPN connection. For more information about
e-mail and text messages, see Help on the device.
Set up Outlook e-mail
When starting ActiveSync on your computer for the first time, the
Synchronization Setup Wizard prompts you to set up a synchronization
relationship. This allows you to synchronize Outlook e-mail and other
information between your device and your computer or the Exchange
Server. If you have already set up synchronization through the wizard,
then your device is ready to send and receive Outlook e-mail. For
information about the Synchronization Setup Wizard, see “To install
and set up ActiveSync on the computer” in Chapter 4.
If you have not set up a synchronization relationship yet, do the
following to set up your device to synchronize Outlook e-mail:
1. To synchronize remotely, you need to set up and connect to an
over-the-air connection (GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA or ISP dial-
up). For more details, see the procedures in “Connecting to the
Internet” in Chapter 6.
2. Disconnect your device from your computer or LAN. (If you have
an over-the-air connection, there is no need to disconnect).
3. Tap Start > Programs > ActiveSync .
4. If you want to synchronize e-mails directly with the Exchange
Server on a private network such as your corporate network,
follow the steps in “Synchronizing directly with Exchange Server”
in Chapter 4.
5. Choose which information types to synchronize. Make sure E-
mail is selected. For details, follow the steps in “To change which
information is synchronized” in Chapter 4.
