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 to on the pop-up menu.
Folder behavior with a direct connection to an e-mail
server
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using ActiveSync,
POP3, or IMAP4:
■ If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook will
automatically be synchronized with your Toshiba Pocket PC. 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 POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link
is broken between the messages on the Toshiba Pocket PC and their copies on
the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the
messages are missing from the Toshiba Pocket PC 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 Toshiba Pocket PC.
■ If you use IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail 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 Toshiba Pocket PC or
computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your
mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when connected.
