Receiving Email Messages

How you receive email messages depends on the type of account you are using and how you synchronize:

⬤Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync®: New email messages are sent to your Treo when they appear on the server, according to the schedule you set up, or when you manually initiate a sync (see “Sharing Information” on page 300).

Tip

If you sync email with Microsoft® Exchange Server 2003 or 2007, you can synchronize messages in subfolders you create. In the Inbox application, press Menu (right softkey) and select Tools > Manage Folders. Folders containing subfolders display a plus sign (+). Select the + to view the subfolders. Check the box to the left of any subfolder you want to sync.

Did you know?

If you synchronize email with Microsoft® Exchange Server 2007, and you receive a message containing a link to a document on SharePoint or an internal file server, you can view the document by selecting the link.

⬤Desktop synchronization software: If you synchronize your Treo with your computer, messages in Microsoft Outlook on your computer are transferred to your Treo when you connect your computer and your device (see “Synchronizing With a USB Connection” on page 50).

⬤All other POP or IMAP accounts: These include ISP accounts and accounts you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account; see “Connecting to a VPN” on page 341). Message retrieval depends on the option you chose from the Automatic Send/Receive list during account setup (see “Setting Up Inbox to Work With Common Providers” on page 130 or “Setting Up Inbox to Work With Other Providers” on page 132), as follows:

■If you chose a time interval: Your Treo automatically checks for and downloads new messages according to that interval.
