Sending and receiving messages via your
desktop PC
You can send and receive messages on your HP Jornada via the e-mail
service on your desktop PC by synchronizing your Inbox. When you enable
Inbox synchronization in ActiveSync options, messages are transferred from
the Inbox and Outbox on your HP Jornada to the corresponding folders on
your desktop PC each time you synchronize.
To enable inbox synchronization
1. In ActiveSync on your desktop PC, on the Tools menu, click
Options, and then select the Inbox information type.
When you synchronize:
• E-mail messages in the Inbox folder of desktop versions of Microsoft
Exchange or Outlook are copied to the Inbox folder on your HP Jornada.
The e-mail messages on the two computers are linked, so when you
delete an e-mail message on your HP Jornada, it will be deleted from your
desktop PC the next time you synchronize.
• E-mail messages in the Outbox folder on your device are transferred to
the Outbox in Microsoft Exchange or Outlook on your desktop PC. The
messages are sent the next time you send mail from your desktop PC.
You can only synchronize e-mail messages with a single desktop PC. If you
have established partnerships between your HP Jornada and two desktop
PCs, you can synchronize your Inbox with only one of them.
Sending and receiving messages with Inbox
If you have an e-mail account with an ISP or on a corporate network, you can
connect to the e-mail server for that account with a modem or network card,
and then use Inbox to send and receive e-mail messages directly.
When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the
Inbox folder on your HP Jornada, messages in your Outbox folder are sent,
and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are deleted from
the Inbox folder.
Messages that you receive directly from an e-mail server (rather than from
your desktop PC) remain linked to the e-mail server. If you delete a message
on your HP Jornada, the message will be deleted from the e-mail server the
next time you connect.
