handheld’s Outbox during the next HotSync operation.

Verifying handheld account settings before synchronizing accounts
Certain settings you configure on your handheld for a given e-mail account must
be set correctly for the synchronization process as well. Before configuring an
e-mail client on your desktop for synchronization, be sure to verify the following
settings on your handheld:
Maximum
Message Size (KB)
for HotSync
Operation
Enter the maximum message size, from 1 to 2048KB. If the
message exceeds the maximum size, the conduit truncates
the message. For example, the maximum message size might
be 50KB, and the message might have the following:
■Message header: 1KB
■Body: 20KB
■Attachment 1: 40KB
■Attachment 2: 20KB
In this case the conduit puts the message header, body, and
Attachment 2—totaling 41KB—on the handheld.
Attachment 1 is removed because adding it to the message
causes the message to exceed the maximum.
Synchronize
Unread Messages
Only
Select whether to synchronize all e-mail between your
desktop and your handheld, or unread e-mail only. By
default, the check box is deselected, meaning that all e-mail
will be synchronized.
APOP and ESMTP If you want to synchronize e-mail for an account that requires
either APOP or ESMTP authentication (for example, Yahoo
accounts require ESMTP authentication), you must select the
option to use APOP or ESMTP on your handheld. See “Adding
APOP to an account” and “Adding ESMTP to an account” in
Chapter 6 for details.
