Understanding MessagingTo send and receive e-mail messages for an e-mail account that you have with an Internet ServiceProvider (ISP) or that you access using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), you needto connect to the Internet or a corporate network, depending on the account.You can send and receive Outlook e-mail and Internet e-mail through an Internet Service Provider (ISP).You can also access e-mail from work using a VPN connection.E-mail in the Outlook e-mail account is sent and received through synchronization with a personalcomputer using ActiveSync or through wireless synchronization directly with an Exchange Server.Internet e-mail is sent and received by connecting to a Post Office Protocol 3 (POP3) or InternetMessage Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) e-mail server. When connecting to a POP3 or IMAP4 server, youuse a modem to connect to an Internet Service Provider (ISP). You can also use a modem or Ethernetcard to connect to the local area network that your e-mail server is connected to.NOTE Microsoft Outlook for your desktop is supplied on the Getting Started CD.ENWW Understanding Messaging 25
Using FoldersEach Messaging account has its own set of folders with five default Messaging folders:●Inbox●Outbox●Deleted Items●Drafts●Sent ItemsThe messages you receive and send through the account are stored in these folders. You can alsocreate additional folders within each account.The way folders work vary by type:●If you use an Outlook e-mail account, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook aresynchronized automatically with the HP iPAQ. You can select to synchronize additional folders bydesignating them for synchronization. The folders you create and the messages you move aremirrored on the e-mail server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox folder to afolder named Family, and you have designated Family for synchronization, the server creates acopy of the Family folder and copies the messages to that folder. You can then read the messageswhile you are away from your personal computer.●If you use a POP3 account and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link isbroken between the messages on the device and their copies on the e-mail server. When youconnect, the e-mail server detects that the messages are missing from the Inbox folder on thedevice and deletes them from the e-mail server. This prevents having duplicate copies of amessage, but it also means that you no longer have access to messages that you move to folderscreated from anywhere except the device.●If you use an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you move aremirrored on the e-mail server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect toyour e-mail server, whether it is from the HP iPAQ or a personal computer. This synchronizationof folders occurs whenever you connect to your e-mail server, create new folders, or rename/deletefolders when connected. You can also set different download options for each folder.26 Chapter 4 Messaging ENWW
Synchronizing E-mailWhen you synchronize Outlook e-mail on a personal computer with the HP iPAQ, e-mail messages aresynchronized as follows:●Messages in the Inbox folder on the personal computer or Exchange Server are copied to the Inboxfolder of the Outlook e-mail account on the HP iPAQ.●Messages in the Outbox folder on the HP iPAQ are transferred to Exchange Server or Outlook andthen sent from those programs.●When you delete a message on the HP iPAQ, it's deleted from the personal computer or ExchangeServer the next time you synchronize.●The default sync settings synchronize messages from the past three days only and the first .5KBof each new message is downloaded. It does not download file attachments.NOTE For more information on starting Outlook e-mail synchronization or changingsynchronization settings, see ActiveSync Help on the personal computer or tap Contents.Text messages are not received via synchronization. Instead, they are sent to the HP iPAQ viayour service provider.ENWW Synchronizing E-mail 27
Setting Up Messaging AccountsReceiving AttachmentsAn attachment sent with an e-mail message or downloaded from the server appears below the subjectof the message. Tapping the attachment opens the attachment if it has been fully downloaded or marksit for download the next time you send and receive e-mail. You can also download attachmentsautomatically with messages if you have an Outlook e-mail or IMAP4 e-mail account.If you have an Outlook e-mail account, do the following:1. Tap Start > Programs > ActiveSync.2. Tap Menu > Options.3. Tap E-mail > Settings, and then select Include file attachments.If you have an IMAP4 e-mail account with an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or an account that youaccess using a VPN server connection (typically a work account), do the following:1. Tap Start > Messaging.2. Tap Menu > Tools > Options.3. Tap the name of the IMAP4 account.4. Tap Next until you reach Server information, and tap Options.5. Tap Next twice, and select Get full copy of messages and When getting full copy, getattachments.Tip Embedded images and objects cannot be received as attachments.An embedded message can be viewed as an attachment when using IMAP4 to receive e-mail.However, this feature does not work if Transport Neutral Encapsulation Format (TNEF) is enabledso that you can receive meeting requests.To store attachments on a storage card rather than on the device, tap Menu > Tools >Options > Storage tab, and select the Store attachments on storage card check box.Receiving Meeting RequestsIf you receive e-mail messages through ActiveSync, you can receive meeting requests. Whenconnecting directly to an e-mail server, the server must be running Microsoft Exchange Server version5.5 or later for you to receive meeting requests.28 Chapter 4 Messaging ENWW
If the server is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2000 or later, meeting requests are automaticallyreceived in your Inbox. However, to receive meeting requests on Microsoft Exchange Server 5.5, do thefollowing:●Ask your system administrator to activate Rich Text Format (RTF) and Transport NeutralEncapsulation Format (TNEF) support for your account.With TNEF enabled, messages that are included in other messages as attachments are notreceived, and you cannot know if a message has an attachment until you get the full copy. Inaddition, download time may be longer.●Change e-mail download options if your account is not set up to receive attachments.After you are set up to receive meeting requests, do the following:1. Open the meeting request.2. Tap Accept, or Menu > Tentative, or Menu > Decline. If you want, you can also include a messagewith the response. The response is sent the next time that you synchronize or connect to your e-mail server, and calendar on the HP iPAQ is updated.Creating or Changing a Signature1. Tap Start > Messaging.2. Tap Menu > Tools > Options.3. Tap Accounts tab > Signatures.4. Select the account for which you want to create or change a signature.5.

Tip By default, messages you send are not saved on the HP iPAQ to help conserve memory.If you want to keep copies of sent messages, in the messaging list, tap Menu > Tools >Options > Message tab, and select the Keep copies of sent items in Sent folder check box.If your account is an Outlook E-mail or IMAP4 account, you must also select the Sent Items folderfor synchronization. To do this, tap Menu > Tools > Manage Folders and select the check boxnext to the folder.Downloading Messages from a Server1. Tap Menu > Switch Accounts and tap the desired account.2. Tap Menu > Send/Receive. The messages on the HP iPAQ and e-mail server are synchronized:new messages are downloaded to the device Inbox folder, messages in the device Outbox folderare sent, and messages that have been deleted from the server are removed from the device Inboxfolder.Tip If you want to read the entire message, tap Menu > Download Message while in themessage window. If you are in the message list, tap and hold the message, and then tapMenu > Download Message. The message is downloaded the next time you send and receivee-mail. This also downloads message attachments if you selected those options when you setup the e-mail account.The size column in the message list displays the local size and server size of a message. Evenwhen an entire message has been downloaded, these numbers may differ because the size ofa message can vary between the server and the device.Installing an Online Address BookMany e-mail servers, including servers running Exchange Server, can verify names with an onlineaddress book, called a directory service, using Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). Whenyou create an e-mail account, the e-mail server's directory service is added to the Address tab, and youare given the option to enable it. After it is enabled, Messaging checks your contact list and then thedirectory service to verify names that you enter in the To, Cc, and Bcc fields. To enable a directoryservice or if you want to use additional services, follow these steps:1. If you are adding a new account, ask your network administrator for the name of the directoryservice and the server.2. In the message list, tap Menu > Tools > Options > Address tab.3. In the In Contacts, get e-mail addresses from list, select which e-mail address book to checkin All e-mail fields. All e-mail fields are checked first unless you select None.4. If your e-mail server is already listed, select the server's directory service check box to enable itand tap OK.5. If your e-mail service is not listed, tap Add.6. In the Directory name and Server boxes, enter the LDAP directory and server names.7. Ask your network administrator if authentication is necessary for your server. If so, select theAuthentication is necessary on this server check box, and enter your user name and password.8. To have Messaging check this service, select the Check name against this server check box.ENWW Using Messaging 31
Tip To delete a service, tap and hold the service, and tap Delete.While synchronizing your Outlook E-mail account, disable any directory services you haveinstalled by clearing the Check name against this server check box. This helps avoid gettingerror messages when Messaging tries to verify names against the service that you are notconnected to.32 Chapter 4 Messaging ENWW
