Sprint Nextel 800w manual Setting Up Wireless Synchronization, 308

Setting Up Wireless Synchronization

If your company uses Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 or Exchange Server 2003 upgraded to Service Pack 2, you may be able to take advantage of Microsoft Direct Push technology. Direct Push technology is a two-way wireless delivery method that keeps your Microsoft® Outlook® information up-to-date by providing efficient communication between the server and your Treo. You may also have access to other features such as Global Address List; Tasks Over The Air (OTA); and IP-based push updating of Calendar, Tasks, and Inbox.

Did you know?

Because your desktop copy of Outlook also syncs with the server, whatever syncs to the server from your Treo also shows up in Outlook; and whatever you enter or change in Outlook on your computer syncs to the server and then shows up on your Treo.

Before You Begin

If you installed ActiveSync desktop software on a Windows XP computer, you may have already set up your Treo to synchronize wirelessly with the server. To check, on your Treo, press Start, select Programs, and then select ActiveSync. Press Menu (right softkey). If Configure Server appears instead of Add Server Source, wireless sync is already set up, and you can skip this procedure.

1.Work with your system administrator to gather the following information for your Exchange Server account:

■Mail server address and domain name.

■The username and password you use to access your corporate mail server.

■Security connection: Does your server use an encrypted (SSL) connection?

2.Press Start and select Programs.

3.Select ActiveSync .

4.Press Menu (right softkey) and select Add Server Source.

5.Enter the email address that you want to set up.
