Synchronizing E-mail Messages
You can synchronize e-mail messages as part of the general
synchronization process whenever you connect your hp Jornada to your
desktop PC. First, you must enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync.
For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help
on the desktop PC.
During synchronization, the following occurs:
•
Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on
your desktop PC to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your hp Jornada.
By default, you will receive messages from the past 3 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 hp Jornada 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 PC in order to be transferred.
Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server
In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your desktop PC, you
can send and receive e-mail messages by using a modem or network
connection and Inbox on your hp Jornada.
In addition to the creating a connection to a network or an ISP, you must
set up an e-mail “service” in Inbox.
The ISP or network must use a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail server and an SMTP
gateway.
To set up an e-mail service
•
In Inbox, tap
Services
, and then tap
New Service
. Follow the
directions in the New Service Wizard.
