What is Exchange ActiveSync™?

With Exchange ActiveSync™ in your phone you can wirelessly synchronize corporate email, calendar items, and contacts on a Microsoft™ Exchange Server 2003 with the corresponding information in your phone.

email	email
Contacts	Contacts
Calendar	Calendar

PC	Exchange	P990
	Server 2003

All changes in your phone are automatically synchronized with your Exchange Server data and vice versa.

With the Direct Push feature activated in your phone, synchronization is immediate. If you, for example, receive a new email in your Outlook™ (or a similar client) it is instantly copied to your phone. This is the default setting. You can, at any time, switch to synchronizing manually or at a defined time interval.

Note: Push synchronization requires Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 with SP2 or later.

Exchange ActiveSync supports SSL (Secure Socket Layer) connections, enabling the same level of security trusted for online banking. Your IT department or operator can tell you if you can set Exchange ActiveSync to connect to your server using an SSL connection.

Your phone supports the use of a Wireless LAN (WLAN) for access to the Exchange ActiveSync server.

Exchange ActiveSync stores its data in the applications on your phone. Email messages go to Messaging (in a separate Exchange ActiveSync mailbox), calendar items to Calendar, and contacts to Contacts. You can use these applications with Exchange ActiveSync with the flip open or closed. This guide describes using them with the flip open.
