Encrypting an Outlook e-mail message protects the privacy of
the message by converting it from plain, readable text into cipher
(scrambled) text. Only the recipient who has the authorization key can
decipher the message.
Digitally signing a message applies your certificate with the
authorization key to the message. This proves to the recipient that the
message is from you and not from an imposter or a hacker, and that
the message has not been altered.

For example, the sender’s certificate may have expired, it may have
been revoked by the certificate authority, or the server that verifies the
certificate is unavailable. Contact the sender to report the problem.
Manage folders
Each Messaging account has its own folder hierarchy with five default
Messaging folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, and Sent
Items. The messages you receive and send through the account are
stored in these folders. You can also create additional folders within
each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that
have been deleted on the device. The behavior of the Deleted Items
and Sent Items folders depends on the Messaging options you have
chosen.
If you use an Outlook e-mail account, e-mail messages in the Inbox
folder in Outlook will be synchronized automatically with your device.
You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them
for synchronization. The folders you create and the messages you
move will then be mirrored on the e-mail server. For example, if you
move two messages from the Inbox folder to a folder named Family,
and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server
creates a copy of the Family folder and copies the messages to that
Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook 129
folder. You can then read the messages while you are away from your
PC.
If you use a text message account, messages are stored in the Inbox
folder.
If you use a POP3 account and you move e-mail messages to a folder
you created, the link is broken between the messages on the device
and their copies on the e-mail server. The next time you connect, the
e-mail server will detect that the messages are missing from the Inbox
folder on the device and will delete them from the e-mail server. This
prevents having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that
you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders
created from anywhere except the device.
If you use an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the e-mail
messages you move are mirrored on the e-mail server. Therefore,
messages are available to you anytime you connect to your e-mail
server, whether it is from your device or PC. This synchronization of
folders occurs whenever you connect to your e-mail server, create new
folders, or rename/delete folders when connected. You can also set
different download options for each folder.
7.2 MMS Messages
Creating and sharing multimedia messages (MMS) with your friends
and family are easy with your device. You can attach pictures or video,
and an audio clip in an MMS. You can even use the device camera to
capture photos and video clips while composing a new MMS message,
and send them along with your message.
Notes
Please note that MMS is a charged service. In order to use MMS
successfully, this has to be provisioned on your mobile account.
Please contact the wireless service provider to have this provisioned
as part of your calling plan.
Please ensure the size of the MMS is within the limits of the wireless
service provider if sending to another mobile phone user or sending
to an e-mail address.

device must be configured with the location of the MMS server for you
to be able to send and receive MMS messages on your device.

by choosing a different skin.
Now Playing screen. The screen that displays the Now Playing

Library screen. The screen that lets you quickly find your audio
files, video files, and playlists. It contains categories such as My

more information about the commands in these menus, see Help on

About licenses and protected files
Some content (such as digital media files downloaded from the
Internet, CD tracks, and videos) have associated licenses that protect
them from being unlawfully distributed or shared. Licenses are created
and managed by using digital rights management (DRM), which is the
technology for securing content and managing its access rights. Some
licenses may prevent you from playing files that have been copied to
your device. Files that have licenses associated with them are called
“protected files.”
If you want to copy a protected file from your PC to your device, use
the desktop Player to synchronize the file to your device (instead of
dragging the file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device,
for example). This will ensure that the license is copied along with the
protected file. For more information about synchronizing files to your
device and other mobile devices, see desktop Player Help.
Note You can view the protection status for a file by checking its file
properties (tapping Menu > Properties).
172 Experiencing Multimedia
Copy files to your device
Use the latest version of the desktop Player (Windows Media Player
10 or later) to synchronize digital media files to your device (instead of
dragging a file from a folder on your PC to a folder on your device, for
example). Using the desktop Player ensures that licenses are copied
with protected files.
Always synchronize the files to a storage card that is inserted into
your device. Do not synchronize to a storage card that is inserted into
a storage card reader. In addition, do not synchronize to the internal
storage location (RAM) in your device.
To synchronize content to your device automatically
1. On your PC, start Windows Media Player.
2. Insert a 32-MB or larger storage card into your device, and then
connect your device to your PC.
3. If you have not set up synchronization between your device and
PC, the Device Setup Wizard opens on your PC.
4. In the wizard, click Automatic, select the Customize the
playlists that will be synchronized check box, and then select
the playlists that you want to synchronize.
5. Click Finish.
6. The files begin synchronizing to your device. The next time
you connect your device to your PC while the desktop version
of Windows Media Player is running, synchronization will start
automatically.
To synchronize and copy content manually to your device
1. If you have not set up synchronization between your device
and PC, follow steps 1 to 5 in “To synchronize content to your
device automatically”, except that you should click Manual
synchronization.
2. To choose files to synchronize and copy to your device, do the
following:

Federal Communications Commission Notice
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause
harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for
a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These
limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful
interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee
that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this
equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or TV reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment on and off, the user
is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from
that to which the receiver is connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio or television

Appendix 197
Modifications
The FCC requires the user to be notified that any changes or
modifications made to the device that are not expressly approved
by High Tech Computer Corporation may void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
Safety Precautions for RF Exposure
Tests for SAR are conducted using standard operating positions
specified by the FCC with the phone transmitting at its highest certified
power level in all tested frequency bands. Although the SAR is
determined at the highest certified power level, the actual SAR level
of the phone while operation can be well below the maximum value.
This is because the phone is designed to operate at multiple power
levels so as to use only the power required to reach the network. In
general, the closer you are to a wireless base station antenna, the
lower the power output. Before a phone model is available for sale to
the public, it must be tested and certified to the FCC that it does not
exceed the limit established by the government-adopted requirement
for safe exposure. The tests are performed in positions and locations
(for example, at the ear and worn on the body) as required by the
FCC for each model. (Body-worn measurements may differ among
phone models, depending upon available accessories and FCC
requirements). For body-worn operation, to maintain compliance with
FCC RF exposure guidelines, use only High Tech computer, Corp.
approved accessories. When carrying the phone while it is on, use the
specific High Tech Computer Corp. supplied or approved carrying case,
holster, or other body-worn accessory.
Use of non High Tech Computer Corp. approved accessories may
violate FCC RF exposure guidelines and should be avoided.
