Before you start synchronizing with the Exchange Server, make sure your phone has been set up with a data
connection to the Internet so that you can synchronize wirelessly. See chapter 8 for details.
After you finish setting up an Exchange Server connection, your phone automatically starts synchronization.
You can manually start synchronization anytime by clicking Sync in ActiveSync.
Note 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 easier.
Messaging features such as Direct Push, Fetch Mail, and Filtering messages are just some of the tools you can
use to manage 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
Working with Company E-mails and Meeting Appointments 63
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 active Internet connection
on your phone.
You need to perform a full synchronization between your phone and the Exchange Server first before Direct
Push can be enabled.

Extension (S/MIME), which allows you to digitally sign and encrypt your messages.
Requirement S/MIME encryption and digital signatures for Windows Mobile-based phones are available only with Exchange
Server 2003 SP2 or a later version that supports S/MIME. If you are not using one of these products, or have

You can set up ActiveSync to digitally sign and encrypt all outgoing messages. You must obtain a valid
certificate to sign and encrypt e-mail messages successfully.
1. Click Start > ActiveSync.
