CHAPTER 16 Tip Increase the time interval for how many days' worth of email to retrieve so that recent messages are not removed from your handheld. Note that the interval for Calendar event retrieval is always seven days. Did You Know? When you set preferences for getting messages for a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account, the Ask Every Time option does not appear. Sending and Receiving Email Messages Getting email messages The steps you take for manually getting messages in a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account are the same as for all other accounts, with one exception: You select Sync instead of Get or Get & Send. However, what takes place during message retrieval for this type of account is different from that of other accounts. Here are the important differences: NOTE These differences apply to an account that uses Microsoft Exchange AutoSync whether you manually retrieve messages or set up an Auto Sync schedule. Message retrieval When you get messages manually or through Auto Sync, Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync not only retrieves email messages directly from the server for the time interval set on your handheld (default is seven days); it also retrieves all Calendar events directly from the server for the preceding seven days. The interval for Calendar event retrieval is always seven days, regardless of the interval you set on your handheld. Wireless synchronization Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync supports wireless synchronization with the server only. To retrieve email messages and Calendar events, you must select Sync in the VersaMail application to make a wireless connection to the server. If you synchronize your handheld with your computer, info from other applications-Contacts, Memos, and so on-is synchronized, but email messages and Calendar events are not. Message removal Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync removes any email messages from your handheld that fall outside the time interval set on the handheld. For example, if the time interval is set at seven days, any email messages that are eight days old are removed from your handheld. This info is not removed from the Exchange server.
