							4-16Microsoft Pocket Outlook
When you receive a message, tap it in the list to open it. Unread messages are displayed in 
bold.
When you connect to your e-mail server or synchronize with your computer, Inbox down-
loads only the first 100 lines of each new message by default. No e-mail attachments are 
downloaded. The original messages remain on the e-mail server or your computer. 
You can mark the messages that you want to retrieve in their entirety the next time you 
synchronize or connect to your e-mail server. In the message list, tap and hold the message 
you want to retrieve. On the pop-up menu, tap Get Full Copy. The icons in the Inbox mes-
sage list give you visual indications of message status.
You’ll need to download a full message before you can view its attachments. Attachments 
appear as icons in a window pane at the bottom of the message. Tapping an attachment 
icon opens the attachment if it has been fully downloaded or marks it for download the 
next time you synchronize or connect to your e-mail server.
You specify your downloading preferences when you set up the service or select your syn-
chronization options. You can change them at any time:
• Change options for Inbox synchronization using ActiveSync options. For more infor-
mation, see ActiveSync Help.
• Change options for direct e-mail server connections in Inbox on your iPAQ H3000.

Managing E-mail Messages and Folders
By default, messages are displayed in one of four folders for each service you’ve created: 
Inbox, Deleted (local), Outbox, and Sent. The Deleted folder contains messages that have 
been deleted on the iPAQ H3000. If you are using IMAP4, you may see a Deleted Items 
folder. This folder is for messages deleted on the e-mail server. The behavior of the 
Deleted and Sent folders depends on the options you have chosen. In the message list, tap 
Tools then Options. On the Message tab, select your options.
If you want to organize messages into additional folders, tap Tools, then New Folder to 
create new folders. To move or copy a message to another folder, in the message list, tap 
and hold the message then tap Move to or Copy to on the pop-up menu.
Folder behavior with ActiveSync
If you move e-mail messages into a folder you create, the link is broken between these e-
mail messages and their copies on the computer. When you synchronize next, the e-mail 
messages in the folder you created will not be synchronized. In addition, e-mail messages 
that are missing from the iPAQ H3000 Inbox folder will be deleted from the Inbox folder 
on the computer so that both Inbox folders match. This prevents you from getting dupli-
cate copies of an e-mail message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to 
the e-mail messages you move out of Inbox except from the iPAQ H3000.
Folder behavior with a direct connection to an e-mail server
The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using POP3 or IMAP4:
• If you are using POP3, folders will behave like they do when using ActiveSync.
• If you are using IMAP4, the folders you create and the messages you move are mir-
rored on the e-mail server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox 
folder to a folder called Family, the e-mail server will create a copy of the Family 
folder and move the messages into that folder. Therefore, messages are available to 
you anytime you connect to your e-mail server, whether it is from your iPAQ H3000, 
laptop computer, or computer. This synchronization of folders occurs when you create 
a new folder, move e-mail messages into a folder, or tap Synchronize Folders on the 
Services menu. If you want to view the messages in a folder while disconnected from 
your e-mail server, select the folder then tap Folder Available Offline on the Services 
menu. This downloads the e-mail message in the folder to your iPAQ H3000.
