4.5 Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail
Messages
You can use Inbox to send and receive e-mail messages in two ways:
By synchronizing e-mail messages with Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft
Outlook on your desktop computer.
By connecting directly to an e-mail server through an ISP (Internet Service
Provider) or a network. This method requires an optional modem or network
card.

on your Yakumo alpha GPS to switch to the program.
Synchronizing E-mail Messages
E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchronization
process. To do this, you need to enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync. For
information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the
desktop computer.
During synchronization, the following occurs:
Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on your
desktop computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your Yakumo alpha
GPS. By default, you receive messages from the past three days only, the first
100 lines of each message file attachments of less than 100 KB in size.
E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your Yakumo alpha GPS 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 Yakumo alpha GPS, it is deleted from your desktop computer the next
time you synchronize.
E-mail messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are
synchronized only if they have been selected for synchronization in
ActiveSync
NOTE:
You can also synchronize e-mail messages with your desktop computer from a
remote location. For more information, see section 6.1.
