Microsoft Pocket Outlook

If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, and

then Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to

another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then tap

Move on the pop-up menu.

Folder behavior with a direct connection to an email server

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

will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to

synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The

folders you create and the messages you move will then be 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 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 PC.

If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a folder you created,

the link is broken between the messages on the device and their copies

on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see

that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and delete them

from the server. 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

device.

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

device or PC. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you

connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete

folders when connected.
