User's Manual v
Introduction
CAUTION
Avoid connecting your Pocket PC to an external device such as a computer in an environment likely to be affected by static electricity. For example, during low-humidity weather, shuffling your shoes upon a rug can produce static electricity. Before you handle your computer, you should touch a grounded object to discharge any static electricity from your body.
Avoid using your Pocket PC in environments that are likely to be affected by static electricity or are prone to high electrical noise. If you connect your Pocket PC to a computer via the docking cradle for data transfer or data restoration purposes, Toshiba will not be responsible for any Pocket PC or computer malfunction, problems with data transfer (restoration creation or data communication) or data modification/loss that may occur in these environments.
CAUTION
Never place an AC Adaptor on a wooden surface (or any other surface that could be marred by exposure to heat) while it is in use, since its surface temperature increases during normal use. Always rest it on a suitable heat-insulating material. Never cover the AC Adaptor with any object while it is in use, and never place it adjacent to a heat source. An excessive temperature increase could detrimentally affect its performance. Never place a Power Supply Cable near a heat source, as damage to the cord or to its insulation could result. Always use a surge protector when utilizing the AC Adaptor during an electrical storm. Otherwise, a power surge could result in the loss of stored data. Insert the power plug to a household electric outlet. When travelling abroad, never plug the AC Adaptor into a power source that does not correspond to both the voltage and the frequency specified on the rating plate of the unit, as equipment damage will result. Never attempt to connect or disconnect the power plug with damp or wet hands. Connecting or disconnecting the power plug with damp or wet hands could result in an electric shock. Never leave an open container, such as a cup or glass, containing a liquid near the AC Adaptor. Spilled liquid coming in contact with the AC Adaptor could cause a fire or electric shock. Always ensure the power plug pins are clean and free of dust or other foreign material by wiping the pins with a clean dry cloth. Dust or other foreign material accumulation on the power plug pins could cause fire. Always unplug the power plug from an outlet by grasping the power plug itself. Never pull on the Power Supply Cable to disconnect the Power Supply Cable from an outlet. Pulling on the Power Supply Cable could cause a fire or electric shock as a result of damage to the Power Supply Cable.

How to Prolong Battery Life

Use the Toshiba Pocket PC with the AC adapter.
When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC under the following conditions, the power consumption will be high. Please use the AC adapter when:
The Toshiba Pocket PC is operated while connected to your
computer.
The Toshiba Pocket PC is operated with a storage card or with any
other optional equipment.
Select the short power-off time in the setting menu. This will shorten
the time the unit will remain on if not used. For more information, see “Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.
Turn off the screen light.
Set the screen brightness to power saving mode. Also shorten the
light turn-off time. For more information, see “Customize Your Toshiba Pocket PC” in this chapter.
Use the Toshiba Pocket PC with an ambient temperature between
15°C (59°F) and 25°C (77°F). This temperature range is the most effective for the battery.
When you use the Toshiba Pocket PC in high or low temperature
environments, the operable time is shortened due to the decrease of the battery capacity.

Battery Life

The built-in battery has a limited life. Repeated charging/discharging of the battery gradually decreases operable time.
Do not leave the Toshiba Pocket PC in a place of high or low
temperature. It may shorten battery life.
If you have not used the Toshiba Pocket PC for several days, its battery charge level reading may be inaccurate. Fully recharge the battery before using.

Inbox: Sending and Receiving E-mail Messages

Use Inbox to send and receive e-mail messages by synchronizing e-mail messages with Microsoft Exchange or Microsoft Outlook on your PC.

Synchronizing E-mail Messages

E-mail messages can be synchronized as part of the general synchronization process. You will need to enable Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync. For information on enabling Inbox synchronization, see ActiveSync Help on the PC.
During synchronization:
Messages are copied from the mail folders of Exchange or Outlook on
your computer to the ActiveSync folder in Inbox on your device. By default, you will receive messages from the past five days only, the first 100 lines of each message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size.
E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred
to Exchange or Outlook, and then sent from those programs.
E-mail messages in subfolders must be selected in ActiveSync on
your computer in order to be transferred.

Using the Message List

Messages you receive are displayed in the message list. By default, the most recently received messages are displayed first in the list.
Select the service and folder you want to display.
Select the sort order for messages.
Tap and hold to display a pop-up menu of actions.
Tap to connect to the selected service.
Tap to connect and to send and receive e-mail.
User's Manual 4-13

When you receive a message, tap it to open it. Unread messages are displayed in bold.
Tap to return to the message list.
Tap to delete this message.
Tap to reply or to forward this message.
Tap to view the previous or next message.
When you connect to your e-mail server or synchronize with your computer, by default, you’ll receive messages from the last five days only, the first 100 lines of each new message, and file attachments of less than 100 KB in size. The original messages remain on the e-mail server or your computer.
You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in full during your next synchronization or e-mail server connection. In the message list, tap and hold the message you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap Mark for Download. The icons in the Inbox message list give you visual indications of message status.
You specify your downloading preferences when you set up the service or select your synchronization options. You can change them at any time:
Change options for Inbox synchronization using ActiveSync options.
For more information, see ActiveSync Help.

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders

By default, messages are displayed in one of five folders for each service you have created: Inbox, Deleted Items, Drafts, Outbox, and Sent Items. The Deleted Items folder contains messages that have been deleted on the device. The behaviour of the Deleted and Sent Items folders depends on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap Tools and then Options. On the Message tab, select your options.
If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, and then Manage Folders to create new folders. To move a message to another folder, in the message list, tap and hold the message and then tap Move to on the pop-up menu.
Folder behaviour with a direct connection to an e-mail server The behaviour of the folders you create depends on whether you are
using ActiveSync, SMS, POP3, or IMAP4.
If you use ActiveSync, e-mail messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook
will automatically be synchronized with your device. You can select to synchronize additional folders by designating them for ActiveSync. The folders you create and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the 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 into that folder. You can then read the messages while away from your computer.
If you use SMS, messages are stored in the Inbox folder.
If you use POP3 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 mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the device Inbox and delete them from the server. This prevents you from 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 IMAP4, the folders you create and the e-mail messages you
move are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server, whether it is from your device or computer. This synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server, create new folders, or rename/ delete folders when connected.
