8.2 Working With Company E-mail

Your device gives you instant access to your company e-mail and lets you manage your messages easier.
Direct Push, Fetch Mail, Remote e-mail search, and e-mail flags are just some of the tools you can use to
manage your e-mails.

Note

Some messaging features depend on the Microsoft Exchange Server version used in your company. Please
check with your network administrator for the availability of these features.

Automatic synchronization through Direct Push

Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new e-mails on your device as soon as
they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this feature, items such as contacts, calendar and tasks
are also immediately updated onto your device when these items have been changed or new entries have
been added on the Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you need to have a data connection on your
device.

You need to perform a full synchronization between your device and the Exchange Server first before Direct
Push can be enabled.

Requirement

The Direct Push feature works for your device only if your company is using Microsoft Exchange

Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version.

Manager.
