80 Working With Company E-mail and Meeting Appointments

8.1 Synchronizing Your Device with the Exchange Server

To keep up-to-date with your company e-mail while you’re out of the office, you can connect your device
to the Internet wirelessly and synchronize it with your company’s Exchange Server. You can also access your
company addressbook anytime. Your company must have a mail server that is running Microsoft Exchange
Server with Exchange ActiveSync.

Set up an Exchange Server connection

Before you can synchronize or access information on the Exchange Server, you need to set up an Exchange
Server connection on your device. You need to get the following information from your network administrator
and enter them on your device:

Exchange Server name (must be the Outlook Web Access server name)

Domain name

User name and password that you use at work

If you have not synchronized your device with your PC, follow these steps to set up an Exchange Server
connection.

1.

Tap Start > Messaging > New E-mail Account.

2.

Enter your e-mail address. Clear the Try to get e-mail settings automatically from the Internet check
box, then tap Next.

3.

Select Exchange server in the Your e-mail provider list, then tap Next.

4.

Tap Next again.

5.

In Server address, enter the Exchange Server name, and tap Next.

6.

Enter your user name, password, and domain, and tap Next.

Tip

To change the rules for resolving synchronization conflicts, tap Advanced.

7.

Select the items that you want to sync with the Exchange Server.

8.

To change synchronization settings of an information type, for example, E-mail, select the type of
information, and tap Settings.

9.

Tap Finish.

Note

If you synchronized e-mails with your PC before, open ActiveSync on your device and tap Menu > Add Server

Source to set up an Exchange Server connection. When you're prompted to select information types for
synchronization, you need to clear the E-mail check box under the Windows PC item first before you can select

E-mail under Exchange Server.

Tip

To change Exchange Server settings, open ActiveSync then tap Menu > Configure Server.

Start synchronization

Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure your device has been set up with a data
connection to the Internet so that you can synchronize wirelessly. For more information about connections,
see Chapter 10.

After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your device automatically starts synchronization.

You can manually start synchronization anytime by tapping Sync in ActiveSync.

Note

If you connect your device to your office computer via a USB or Bluetooth connection, you can use this
connection to the PC to “pass through” to the network and download Outlook e-mails and other information to
your device.
