4 Managing Microsoft® Pocket Outlook applications Inbox
When you connect to the email server, new messages are downloaded to your handheld’s Inbox folder, messages in the handheld’s Outbox folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted on the email server are removed from the handheld’s Inbox folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an email server are linked to your email server rather than your computer. When you delete a message on your handheld, it is also deleted from the email server the next time you connect based on the settings you selected in ActiveSync.
You can work online or offline. When working online, you read and respond to messages while connected to the email server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your handheld.
When working offline, once you've downloaded new message headers or partial messages, you can disconnect from the email server and then decide which messages to download completely. The next time you connect, Inbox downloads the complete messages you've marked for retrieval and sends the messages you've composed.
