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 device. For details, see
Chapter 4, “Adding and Removing Programs.”

3.6 Setting Up Email Security
Windows Mobile on your phone protects your Outlook emails through
Secure/Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension (S/MIME), which allows
you to digitally sign your messages as well as encrypt them.
Using authorization keys and certificates, S/MIME allows you to
digitally sign your email messages to prove your identity to the
recipients. Authorization keys are also used when encrypting
messages to improve 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 email 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 aren’t 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 email encryption and signing.
You will have to obtain a valid certificate for signing or encrypting email
before you will be able to sign or encrypt mail successfully.
1. On the Home screen, click Start > ActiveSync.
2. Click Menu > Options.
3. Select the E-mail information type and click Settings. On the
E-mail Sync screen, click Menu > Advanced.

• To encrypt all your outgoing email messages so that the
contents of your messages are protected from being viewed
by anyone other then the intended recipients, select Encrypt
messages.
5. Click Menu > Choose Certificate to select a certificate for
signing or encrypting outgoing email messages.
You can select certificates to sign or encrypt email messages
individually if you do not choose to sign or encrypt all outgoing
emails. For information about signing and encrypting individual
