Filter During synchronization, all e-mail items in your handheld Outbox are sent to your desktop E-Mail application, and items in your desktop E-Mail Inbox that meet specific criteria download to your handheld. When you select the Filter setting, the HotSync Options dialog box opens and displays additional filter settings. See "Creating special filters" later in this chapter. Unread During synchronization, only unread e-mail items download to your handheld from your desktop E-Mail Inbox, and all items in your handheld Outbox are sent to your desktop E-Mail application. The All setting does not mean that all information included in each e-mail item downloads to your handheld. Truncation settings (explained in a following section) for long e-mail items still apply. Also, Mail never downloads any attachments to your handheld. The e-mail item and any text information appear, but the attachment is left in your desktop E-Mail application. 5.

Creating special filters You can create special filters to control the type of e-mail items that download to your handheld during synchronization. Special filters work on the premise of ignoring or retrieving items that contain specific information in their header fields. To create a special filter, you must decide whether you want to ignore or retrieve certain e-mail items. Then, based on that decision, you must tell your handheld what it needs to look for in the To:, From:, and Subj: fields to single out those e-mail items. To access the special filter settings: s Tap the Filter box in the HotSync Options dialog box. Chapter 6 Page 161
