If your device is set to synchronize automatically when items arrive, ActiveSync uses SMS messaging behind the scenes to communicate to your device when an item has arrived. Depending on your rate plan, SMS messages may have costs associated with them on a per-message basis or as a monthly allotment. To reduce SMS messaging costs associated with this feature, schedule synchronization automatically when items arrive during times when mail volume is low.

Be more up-to-date

Keeping the information on your device always up-to-date requires more frequent synchronization. If your priority is to stay up-to-date, recharge your battery frequently and synchronize often. During periods of high mail volume, you can stay up-to-date efficiently by scheduling synchronization at frequent intervals. During periods of low mail volume, you can stay up-to-date efficiently by scheduling synchronization automatically when items arrive.

Contact your ISP or network service provider (such as your cellular phone network provider) to confirm the details of your rate plan.

The power-off timer is reset each time the device synchronizes. If you set a synchronization schedule that is more frequent than the time set for the device to automatically power off, the device will never turn off to save battery power.
