Working with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®

Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync® works with the VersaMail, Calendar, and Contacts apps on your Centro to directly access corporate groupware information on a Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2003. You can synchronize business email, calendar, and contact info with the Exchange 2003 server from your Centro without using a desktop computer.

When you create a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account in the VersaMail application, your email, calendar, and contact info sync directly with the Exchange server; information does not sync with the desktop software application on your computer, such as Microsoft Outlook or Palm Desktop software. Other information that is stored on your computer, such as tasks and memos,

continues to synchronize with your desktop software.

The Exchange server pushes email messages, Calendar events, meeting invitations, and updated contact information it receives onto your Centro. Likewise, when you create an email message or event or you update a contact on your Centro, it can be pushed to the server.

DID YOU KNOW? Your Centro turns on and an alert appears whenever you receive a new message. To save battery life, you can turn alerts off for your Exchange ActiveSync account. Go to the account, press Menu, select Options, and then select Preferences. Select Alerts, and then uncheck the alert box.

Pushing email, events, and contacts

The Exchange server pushes email messages, Calendar events, meeting invitations, and updated contact information it receives onto your Centro.

NOTE Find out from your system administrator if your Exchange server supports push and has push turned on.
