3.1 About ActiveSync
ActiveSync synchronizes information on your phone with information on your PC such as Outlook content.
ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network with Exchange Server if your company or
service provider is running Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync.
Specifically, you can use ActiveSync to:
• Synchronize information, such as Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar, or tasks information on your
phone with your PC, as well as pictures, video, and music.
• Synchronize Outlook e-mail, contacts, calendar appointments, and tasks on your phone directly with
Exchange Server so that you can stay up to date even when your PC is turned off.
• Copy files between your phone and your PC.
• Select which types of information are synchronized and specify how much information is synchronized.
For example, you can choose how many weeks of past calendar appointments to synchronize.
• Add and remove programs on your phone. For details, see Chapter 4, “Adding and Removing Programs.”
3.2 Setting Up ActiveSync
To install and set up ActiveSync on the computer
1. Install ActiveSync on your PC, as described on the Windows Mobile® Getting Started Disc.
2. After Setup completes, the Synchronization Setup Wizard automatically starts when you connect your
phone to the PC. The wizard will guide you to create a synchronization relationship between your
phone and computer. Click Next.
3. Do not select the Synchronize directly with a server running Microsoft Exchange Server check box
if you will synchronize your phone with a computer. Just click Next, then skip to step 8.
4. If you will synchronize your phone with Exchange Server, select the Synchronize directly with a
server running Microsoft Exchange Server check box, then click Next.
5. On the Exchange server credentials screen, enter the Exchange server address, your user name and
password, and the domain name.
If you do not know what the Exchange server address and domain name are, you can check with your
network administrator, or you can check them in your computer by doing the following:
Synchronizing Information and Setting Up E-mail Security 31
a. In Outlook, click Tools > E-mail Accounts.

privacy and prevent undue tampering or hacking of your messages. You can encrypt a message with or
without a certificate. However, to read an encrypted message, you need a valid certificate for decrypting e-
mail messages.
Note S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows Mobile-based devices are available only with Exchange Server
2003 Service Pack 2 or a later version that supports S/MIME. If you are not using one of these products, or have not yet
synchronized, these options are unavailable.
Digitally sign and encrypt all messages
ActiveSync allows you to set up S/MIME e-mail encryption and signing. You will have to obtain a valid
certificate for signing or encrypting e-mail before you will be able to sign or encrypt mail successfully.
1. On the Home screen, click Start > ActiveSync.

6.1 Using E-mail and Text Messages
Messaging is where all of your e-mail accounts and your text message account are located. You can send and
receive Outlook e-mail, Internet e-mail through an Internet service provider (ISP), and text messages. You can
also access e-mail from work using a virtual private network (VPN) connection.
Set up Outlook E-mail
When starting ActiveSync on your computer for the first time, the Synchronization Setup Wizard prompts you
to set up a synchronization relationship. This allows you to synchronize Outlook e-mail and other information
between your phone and your computer or the Exchange Server. If you have already set up synchronization
through the wizard, then your phone is ready to send and receive Outlook e-mail. For information about the
Synchronization Setup Wizard, see “To install and set up ActiveSync on the computer” in Chapter 3.
If you have not set up a synchronization relationship yet, do the following to set up your phone to synchronize
Outlook e-mail:
1. To set up and connect to an over-the-air connection (1xRTT, 1xEVDO, or ISP dial-up) to synchronize
remotely, follow the procedures in “Connecting to the Internet” in Chapter 5.
2. Disconnect your phone from your computer or LAN. (If you have an over-the-air connection, there is no
need to disconnect.)
3. Click Start > ActiveSync.
4. If you want to synchronize e-mails directly with the Exchange Server on a private network such as your
corporate network, follow the steps in “Synchronize Outlook information with Exchange Server” in
Chapter 3.
5. Choose which information types to synchronize. Make sure E-mail is selected. For details, follow the
steps in “To change which information is synchronized” in Chapter 3.
Every time you want to manually send or receive Outlook e-mail on your phone, just connect your phone to
your computer, LAN, or over-the-air connection, then click Sync on the ActiveSync screen or click Menu >
Send/Receive in Outlook on your phone.
For details about scheduling automatic synchronization or setting a synchronization time with the Exchange
Server, see “Schedule synchronization with Exchange Server” in Chapter 3.

Provider (ISP) or that you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), download
Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook 65
messages through a remote e-mail server. For more information, see "To download messages from the
server" in this chapter.
• Text messages are automatically received when your phone is turned on. When your phone is turned
off, messages are held by your service provider until you turn on your phone again.
To download messages from the server
To send and receive e-mail messages for an e-mail account that you have with an Internet Service Provider
(ISP) or that you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), you first need to connect to
the Internet or your corporate network, depending on the account.
1. On the Home screen, click Start > Messaging.
2. Select the e-mail account.
3. Click Menu > Send/Receive. The messages on your phone and e-mail server are synchronized as
follows: new messages are downloaded to the phone Inbox folder, messages in the phone Outbox
folder are sent, and messages that have been deleted from the server are removed from the phone
Inbox folder.
Tip If you want to download the entire message, select the message and click Menu > Download Message. The
remainder of the message will be downloaded the next time you send and receive e-mail.
Individually sign and encrypt a message
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.
To digitally sign and encrypt a new message
1. In the message list, select Outlook E-mail.
2. Click New.
3. Click Menu > Message Options.
4. In the Security field, select the Encrypt message and Sign message check boxes then click Done.
66 Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook
Verify the digital signature on a signed message you receive
To verify a digital signature in the message that you receive, do the following:
1. Open the Outlook e-mail message that has been digitally signed.
2. At the top of the message, click View Signature Status.
3. Click Menu > Check Certificate.
4. To view the details of the certificate in the message, click Menu > View Certificate.
Note There can be several reasons why a digital signature is not valid. 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. Folders for e-mail accounts behave
differently depending on the type of e-mail account you have.
If you set up an Outlook E-mail account to sync with Exchange Server or a desktop PC, e-mail messages in the
Inbox folder in Outlook will be synchronized automatically with your phone. 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 folder. You can then read the messages while you are away from your PC.
You can only create and delete folders on devices when you are connected to an Exchange e-mail server
.
Similar to the Outlook account, if you set up an account to send and receive mail using an IMAP4 e-mail
server, all messages on the phone are copies of the messages on the server. The folders you create locally
on the phone and the e-mail messages you move to these folders are mirrored on the e-mail server. Moving
a message on the phone moves the copy on the server the next time you send and receive e-mail for that
account. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your e-mail server, whether it is
from your phone 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.
If you set up an account to send/receive mail using a POP3 e-mail server, e-mail messages you move to the
Deleted Items folder on the phone will break the link between the messages on the phone and their copies
on the e-mail server. The next time you connect to send and receive mail, the e-mail server will detect the
messages that are in the Deleted Items folder on the phone and will delete those messages from the e-mail
server. All other messages in other folders remain on both the phone and the e-mail server.
Exchanging Messages and Using Outlook 67
