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.

About Synchronizing Inbox
After selecting Inbox 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 PC or the Microsoft
Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your device. (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'll 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 device 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 device, it's deleted from your PC the next time you
synchronize.
