Communicating and Scheduling
Messaging
Use Messaging to send and receive e-mail messages:
• Synchronize e-mail messages using Exchange or Outlook on your computer.
• Send and receive e-mail messages by connecting directly to an e-mail
server through an ISP or a network.
NOTE:
To create an e-mail account for your device, contact your internet
service provider. Dell does not provide this service.
Synchronizing E-Mail Messages
You can synchronize e-mail messages along with the rest of your data if you
enable Messaging synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on enabling
Messaging synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on your computer.
NOTE:
You can also synchronize e-mail messages with your computer from a
remote location. For more information, see "Getting Connected" on page 101.
During synchronization:
• Messages are copied from the e-mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on
your computer to the ActiveSync folder in Messaging on your device.
By default, you receive:
–
Messages from the past 3 days
– The first 100 lines of each message
– File attachments of less than 100 KB in size
• E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to
Exchange or Outlook on your computer, and then sent from
those programs.
• E-mail messages in subfolders on your computer must be selected in
ActiveSync to be transferred.
Connecting Directly to an E-Mail Server
In addition to synchronizing e-mail messages with your computer, you can
send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server using a
modem or network card connected to your device. You need to set up a
remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail
server. For more information, see "Getting Connected" on page 101.
