Chapter 3 Manually Configuring Devices 51
After the Exchange account is successfully configured, the server’s passcode policies are
enforced. If the user’s current passcode doesn’t comply with the Exchange ActiveSync
policies, the user is prompted to change or set the passcode. The device won’t
communicate with the Exchange server until the user sets a compliant passcode.
Next, the device offers to immediately sync with the Exchange server. If you choose not
to sync at this time, you can turn on calendar and contact syncing later in Settings >
Mail, Contacts, Calendars. By default, Exchange ActiveSync pushes new data to your
device as it arrives on the server. If you prefer to fetch new data on a schedule or to
only pull new data manually, use Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data
to change the settings.
To change how many days’ worth of mail messages are synced to your device, go to
Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and then select the Exchange account. You can
also select which folders, in addition to the inbox, are included in push email delivery.
To change the setting for calendar data go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars >
Sync.
