Synchronizing Outlook E-mail
When you synchronize Outlook e-mail on the desktop computer with the
device, e-mail messages are synchronized as follows:
Messages in the Inbox folder on your desktop computer or Exchange
Server are copied to the Inbox folder of the Outlook E-mail account on
the device.
Messages in the Outbox folder on the device are transferred to Exchange
Server or Outlook, and then sent from those programs.
When you delete a message on the device, it is deleted from your
desktop computer or Exchange Server the next time you synchronize.
The default sync settings are to synchronize messages from the last three
days only, the first 0.5 KB of each new message, and not to sync file
attachments.
NOTE:
You can also specify that subfolders of the Inbox folder are synchronized.
SMS messages are not received via synchronization. Instead, they are sent to the
device via your service provider.
Downloading Messages from the Server
To send and receive e-mail messages for an e-mail account that you have
with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or that you access using a VPN
server connection (typically a work account) you need to connect to the
Internet or your corporate network, depending on the account.
