Folder behavior with a direct connection to an
email server:
The behavior of the folders you create depends on
whether you are using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or
IMAP4 account.

!

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 computer.

!

If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox

folder.

!

If you use POP3 and you move email messages to a

folder you created, the link is broken between the
messages on your device and their copies on the email
server. The next time you connect, the email server will
see that the messages are missing from the device’s
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
your 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 email server, whether it is from your
device or from your computer. This synchronization of
folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server,
create new folders, or rename/delete folders when
connected.
