Setting up an Exchange Server email account
An Exchange Server account enables you to wirelessly synchronize your email, contacts,
calendar, and other information directly with the information stored on a Microsoft Exchange
2003 Server. When the Exchange Server 2003 is upgraded to Service Pack 2, new features are
available that allow you to access online address books and use Direct Push Technology. These
features include Global Address List, Tasks Over The Air (OTA), and Direct Push synchronization
of Outlook information.
Direct Push Technology is the two-way wireless delivery method used between Microsoft
Exchange Server 2003 with SP2 (Service Pack 2) servers and a smartphone with Windows
Mobile 5.0 with MSFP (Messaging and Security Feature Pack) for Outlook information (Email,
Calendar, Contacts, and Tasks). Direct Push Technology uses Internet-based communication
methods that provide lower network overhead, lower costs, and more efficient communications
than the previous SMS-based methods.
If you already set up your Exchange Server email settings when you installed the ActiveSync
®
desktop software, you do not need to repeat this process. If you did not set up an Exchange
Server email account, follow the steps in this section to set up an account now. Work with your
system administrator to gather the following info:
■ Mail server address and domain name
■ Your username and password
■ SSL information (if required by the server, ask your system administrator)
NOTE If your email account requires a VPN connection to establish a secure connection, you must install a VPN application
(sold separately) on your smartphone before you can access your email. Visit www.palm.com/mytreo700wxVerizon to
purchase a VPN application, and see the User Guide for more info.
