By synchronizing email 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.
Messaging to switch to the program. Tap 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 Pocket PC. 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.
Email messages in the Outbox folder on your Pocket PC 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 Pocket PC, it is deleted from your desktop computer the next time you synchronize.
Email messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchronized only if they have been selected for synchronization in ActiveSync. 47 Connecting Directly to an E-mail Server You can send and receive email messages by connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail server if you can connect to your ISP or local area network. (For information on connection, see Section 6.1.) Setting up an Email Service You can use multiple email services to receive your messages. For each email service you intend to use, first set up and name the email service. If you use the same service to connect to different mailboxes, set up and name each mailbox connection. In Messaging, tap Menu Tools New Account. Follow the directions in the New Service Wizard. For an explanation of a screen, tap at the upper right corner of the screen. When you connect to the email server, new messages are downloaded to the Inbox folder on your Pocket PC, messages in the Pocket PC Outbox folder are sent messages that have been deleted on the email server are removed from the Inbox folder on your Pocket PC. Messages that you receive directly from an email server are linked to your email server rather than your desktop computer. When you delete a message on your Pocket PC, it is also deleted from the email server the next time you connect based on the settings you selected in ActiveSync. You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to messages while connected to the email server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your Pocket PC. When working offline, once you have downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the email server and then decide which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you have marked for retrieval and sends the messages you have composed. Using the Message List Messages you receive are displayed in the message list. By default, the most recently received messages are displayed first in the list. 48 Select the service and folder you want to display. Select the sort order for messages. Tap to open a message. Tap and hold to display the shortcut menu. When you receive a message, tap it to open it. Unread messages are displayed in bold. Tap to return to the message list. When you connect to your email server or synchronize with your desktop computer or server, by default, you will receive messages from the last three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message file attachments of less than 100KB in size. The original messages remain on the server or your desktop computer. 49 You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next synchronization or email server connection. In the message list, tap and hold the message you want to retrieve. On the shortcut menu, tap Mark for Download. The icons in the Inbox message list give you visual indications of message status. You specify your downloading preferences when you set up the service or select your synchronization options. You can change them at any time.
Change options for Inbox synchronization using ActiveSync options. For more information, see ActiveSync Help.
Change options for direct email server connections in Messaging on your Pocket PC. Tap Accounts Accounts and tap the service you want to change. Tap and hold the account and tap Delete to remove an account. Composing and Sending Messages 1. In the message list, tap Menu Switch Accounts and select the account. 2. Tap New. 3. In the To field, enter an email address of one or more recipients, separating them with a semicolon. If the address is already in your contact list, you can tap To to select the e-mail address. 4. Enter your message. To quickly enter common messages, tap Menu My Text and select the desired message. 50 5. To check spelling, tap Menu Spell Check. 6. If you want to attach a file to the message, tap Menu Insert and select the desired file. NOTE: OLE objects cannot be attached to Inbox messages. 7. Tap Send when you have finished the message. If you are working offline, the message is moved to the Outbox folder and is sent the next time you connect. The message is placed in the Outbox folder on your Pocket PC and will be delivered in one of two ways:
The message is transferred to the Outbox folder in Exchange or Outlook on your desktop computer and sent the next time you synchronize.
The message is transferred to your email server the next time you connect. In Messaging, make sure the appropriate service is selected on the Accounts menu. Then tap the Connect button (or Connect on the Accounts menu). Managing Email Messages and Folders Each e-mail service account has its own folder hierarchy with five default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the mail service are stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on your Pocket PC. The behaviour of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends on the options you have chosen. Folder Behavior The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync, POP3 or IMAP4.
If you use ActiveSync, email messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook are automatically synchronized with your Pocket PC. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move are mirrored on the server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family and you have designated Family for synchronization, the 51 server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your desktop computer.
If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the Pocket PC and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees that the messages are missing from the Pocket PC Inbox and deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the Pocket PC.
If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the email messages you move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your Pocket PC or desktop computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders or rename/delete folders when connected. For all services except ActiveSync, you can access folder options by tapping Menu Tools Manage Folders in the message list. 52 5 More Programs In addition to Microsoft Pocket Outlook, there are other programs built into your Pocket PC. This chapter tells you how to use these programs. 5.1 Microsoft ActiveSync NOTE: ActiveSync is already installed on your Pocket PC. You need to install ActiveSync on your desktop computer. (For information on installing ActiveSync, see section 1.4.) When you have established the connection between your Pocket PC and your desktop computer, you can synchronize the information between the two with ActiveSync. Synchronization compares the data on the two sides and updates both computers with the most recent information. For example, you can:
Keep your Pocket Outlook Contacts, Calendar and Tasks databases up-to-date by synchronizing your Pocket PC with Microsoft Outlook data on your desktop computer.
Synchronize email messages in your Pocket PC Inbox with email messages in Microsoft Outlook on your desktop computer.
Synchronize Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel files between your Pocket PC and desktop computer. Your files are automatically converted to the correct format. With ActiveSync, you can also:
Back up and restore your Pocket PC data.
Copy (rather than synchronize) files between your Pocket PC and desktop computer.
Add and remove programs on your Pocket PC. 53
Pass through your desktop computer to a network or the Internet to perform tasks such as downloading IMAP4 e-mail messages or browsing the Internet on your Pocket PC. Synchronizing Data Once you have created a synchronization relationship and completed the first synchronization, you can initiate synchronization from your Pocket PC. From Your Pocket PC 1. Connect your Pocket PC to your desktop computer using cable/cradle, Bluetooth, or infrared (IR). 2. On your Pocket PC, tap 3. Tap Sync to begin synchronization.
ActiveSync. By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of information. Use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization on and off for specific information types. You can:
Control when synchronization occurs by selecting a synchronization mode. For example, you can synchronize continually while the Pocket PC is connected or only when you choose the synchronize command. 54
Select which information types are synchronized and control how much data is synchronized. For example, you can choose how many weeks of past appointments you want synchronized. For information on setting ActiveSync options and using ActiveSync on your desktop computer, see ActiveSync Help on the desktop computer. For information on using ActiveSync on your Pocket PC, see ActiveSync Help on the Pocket PC. From a Remote Location You can also synchronize by dialing in to your desktop computer or connecting over a network. This can be useful if you need to synchronize files or PIM information while traveling. Before you leave, you must configure both your Pocket PC and your desktop computer. For more information, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop computer. 55 5.2 Word Mobile Microsoft Word Mobile works with Microsoft Word on your desktop computer to give you easy access to copies of your documents.
