CN3 Mobile Computer User’s Manual - PRELIMINARY 57
Messages are copied from the Inbox folder on your desktop or the
Microsoft Exchange server to the Inbox folder on your CN3 Computer.
(Note that you can only synchronize information directly with an
Exchange Server if your company is running Microsoft Mobile Informa-
tion Server 2002 or later.) By default, you receive messages from the last
three days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attach-
ments of less than 100 KB in size.
Messages in the Outbox folder on your CN3 Computer are transferred
to Exchange or Outlook and then sent from those programs.
The messages on the two computers are linked. When you delete a mes-
sage on your CN3 Computer, it is deleted from your desktop the next
time you synchronize.
Messages in subfolders in other e-mail folders in Outlook are synchro-
nized only if they were selected for synchronization in ActiveSync.
For information on initiating Messaging synchronization or changing syn-
chronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on your desktop or tap Start >
Help, then select a topic.
Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
Each e-mail account and SMS account has its own folder hierarchy with
five default folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent Items.
The messages you receive and send through the mail account are stored in
these folders. You can also create additional folders within each hierarchy.
The Deleted Items folder contains messages that were deleted on the CN3
Computer. The behavior of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders
depends on the Inbox options you have chosen.
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using
ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.
If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook
automatically synchronize with your CN3 Computer. You can select to
synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The
folders you create and the messages you move are then 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 synchroniza-
tion, the server creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the mes-
sages into that folder. You can then read messages while away from your
desktop.
If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.
If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created,
the link is broken between the messages on the CN3 Computer and their
copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server sees
that the messages are missing from the CN3 Computer Inbox and
deletes them from the server. This prevents you from having duplicate
copies of a message, but it also means that you no longer have access to
