When you connect to the e-mail server:
• New messages are downloaded to the device
Inbox
folder.
• Messages in the device
Outbox
folder are sent.
• Messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from
the device
Inbox
folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server are linked to your
e-mail server rather than to your computer. When you delete a message on
your device, it is also deleted from the e-mail server the next time you
connect, depending on the settings you selected in ActiveSync.
When you are working online, you read and respond to messages while
connected to the e-mail server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap
Send
,
which saves space on your device.
After you have downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can
disconnect from the e-mail server and then decide which messages to download
completely. The next time you connect, Messaging downloads the 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.
When you receive a message, tap to open it. Unread messages are displayed
in bold.
The original messages remain on the e-mail server or your computer. You can
mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next
synchronization or e-mail server connection. In the message list, tap and
hold the message that you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap
Mark for Download
. The icons in the Inbox message list indicate message status.
You specify your downloading preferences when you set up the service or
select your synchronization options. You can change the settings at any time:
• Change options for Messaging synchronization using ActiveSync
options. For more information, see ActiveSync Help on your computer.
• Change options for direct e-mail server connections in Messaging on
your device. Tap
Menu
→
Options
. On the
Account
tab, tap the
service that you want to change. Tap and hold the service and select
Delete
to remove a service.
