Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook

To download messages from the server

To send and receive e-mail messages for an e-mail account that you have with an Internet

Service Provider (ISP) or that you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work

account), you first need to connect to the Internet or your corporate network, depending on

the account.

1.

Tap

Menu > Switch Accounts to select the account you want to use.

2.

Tap

Menu > Send/Receive. The messages on your device and e-mail server are

synchronized: new messages are downloaded to the device Inbox folder, messages

in the device Outbox folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted from the

server are removed from the device Inbox folder.

Tip

If you want to read the entire message, tap

Menu > Download Message while in the

message window. If you are in the message list, tap and hold the message, and tap

Menu > Download Message. The message will download the next time you send and

receive e-mail. This will also download message attachments if you selected those

options when you set up the e-mail account.

Individually sign and encrypt a message

Encrypting an Outlook e-mail message protects the privacy of the message by converting

it from plain, readable text into cipher (scrambled) text. Only the recipient who has the

authorization key can decipher the message.
Digitally signing a message applies your certificate with the authorization key to the

message. This proves to the recipient that the message is from you and not from an

imposter or a hacker, and that the message has not been altered.

To digitally sign and encrypt a new message
1.

In the message list, tap

Menu > Switch Accounts > Outlook E-mail.

2.

Tap

New.

3.

Tap

Menu > Message Options.

4.

Select the

Encrypt message and Sign message check boxes, and tap OK.
