from your network administrator and enter it on your phone:
•
Exchange Server name (must be the Outlook Web Access server name)
•
Domain name that you use at work
•
User name and password that you use at work
You can set up the Exchange Server connection from your phone or your PC.

Notes
•
You need a T-Mobile data plan to be able to synchronize with the Exchange Server.
•
If you connect your phone to your office computer via a USB or Bluetooth connection, you can use
this connection to the PC to “pass through” to the network and download Outlook e-mails and other
information to your phone.
7.2 Working with Company E-mails
Your phone gives you instant access to your company e-mails and lets you manage your messages
more easily. Messaging features, such as Direct Push, Fetch Mail, and Filtering messages, are just
some of the tools you can use in managing your e-mails.
Note
Some messaging features depend on the MIcrosoft Exchange Server version used. Please check with
your network administrator for the availability of Exchange Server features.
Automatic synchronization through Direct Push
Direct Push technology (push e-mail feature) enables you to receive new e-mails on your phone as
soon as they arrive in your Inbox on the Exchange Server. With this feature, items such as contacts,
calendar, and tasks are also immediately updated onto your phone when these items have been
changed or new entries have been added on the Exchange Server. To make Direct Push work, you
need to have a GPRS connection on your phone.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your phone and the Exchange Server first
before you can enable Direct Push.
Requirement
The Direct Push feature works for your phone only if your company is using Microsoft
Exchange Server 2003 Service Pack 2 (SP2) with Exchange ActiveSync or higher version

2. Select As items arrive in the Peak times and Off-peak times boxes.
Note
When both the GPRS/EDGE and Wi-Fi connections are turned on at the same time, the Direct Push
feature will always opt for GPRS/EDGE, which you could be charged for based on your T-Mobile service
plan.
Working with Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 145
Scheduled synchronization
If you do not want to use Direct Push, you can set a regular schedule for synchronizing Outlook
e-mail and information.
1. In ActiveSync on your phone, select Menu > Schedule.
2. Select a shorter time interval in the Peak times box for you to be able to receive e-mails
more frequently.

Send/Receive action.
Requirement
Fetch Mail works for your phone only if your company is using Microsoft Exchange Server
2007 or higher.
1. Select Start > Messaging > Outlook E-mail.
