Message, Internet, and Messenger

Microsoft Outlook on your PC. You will need to
enable Inbox synchronisation in ActiveSync.
During synchronisation:
• Messages are copied from the mail folders of
Exchange or Outlook on your PC to the
Outlook E-mail folders on your phone.
• E-mail messages in Outlook E-mail on your
phone are transferred to Exchange or
Outlook, and then sent from those programs.
Connecting directly to an e-mail server
You can send and receive e-mail messages by
connecting to an e-mail server. You’ll need to
set up a remote connection to a network or an
ISP, and a connection to your e-mail server.
When you connect to the e-mail server, new
messages are downloaded to the phone’s Inbox
folder. Also, messages in the phone’s Outbox
folder are sent and messages that have been
deleted on the e-mail server are removed from
the phone’s message folders.
Folder behavior with a direct connection to
an e-mail server
The behavior of the folders you create depends
on whether you are using POP3 or IMAP4.
• If you use POP3 and you move e-mail
messages to a folder you created, the link is
broken between the messages on the phone
and their copies on the mail server. The next
time you connect, the mail server will see that
the messages are missing from the phone and
delete them. 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 phone.
• If you use IMAP4, the folders you created and
the e-mail messages you moved are mirrored
on the server. Therefore, messages are
available to you anytime you connect to your
mail server. This synchronisation of folders
occurs whenever you connect to your mail
server; create new folders or rename/delete
folders when connected.
