Verifying handheld account settings before synchronizing accounts
Certain settings you configure on your handheld for an e-mail account must be set
correctly for the synchronization process as well. Before configuring an e-mail
client on your desktop for synchronization, be sure to verify the following settings
on your handheld:
APOP, ESMTP, and SSL:
If you want to synchronize e-mail for an account that
requires either APOP or ESMTP authentication (for example, Yahoo accounts
require ESMTP authentication) or a secure (SSL) connection for incoming mail,
you must select the option to use APOP, ESMTP, or a secure connection on your
handheld. See
“Adding ESMTP to an account”
earlier in this chapter for
information on ESMTP.
Mail filters:
Any mail filters you have configured for an e-mail account on your
handheld also apply during the synchronization process. For example, if you
have set filters to accept only e-mail containing the subject words “Current
Software Project,” only those same messages are synchronized between your
desktop and your handheld. Be sure to turn mail filters off if you want to
synchronize all messages between your desktop and your handheld.
