Inbox

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 device, it is also deleted from the email server the next time you connect based on the settings you selected in ActiveSyncTM.

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 device.

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.
