Receiving Email Messages
How you receive email messages depends on the type of account you are using and how
you synchronize:
Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
®
: New email messages are sent to your Treo Pro
smartphone when they appear on the server, according to the schedule you set up, or
when you manually initiate a sync (see “Sharing Information” on page 322).
Desktop synchronization software: If you synchronize your Treo Pro smartphone with your
computer, messages in Microsoft Outlook on your computer are transferred to your
smartphone when you connect your computer and your device (see “Synchronizing With
a USB Connection” on page 48).
All other POP or IMAP accounts: These include ISP accounts and accounts you access
using a VPN server connection (typically a work account; see “Connecting to a VPN” on
page 366). Message retrieval depends on whether you chose a time interval or manually
from the Automatic Send/Receive list during account setup (see “Setting Up Messaging
to Work With Common Providers” on page 130 or “Setting Up Messaging to Work With
Other Providers” on page 132).
If you chose a time interval: Your Treo Pro smartphone automatically checks for and
downloads new messages according to that interval.
Tip
If you sync email with Microsoft
®
Exchange Server 2003 or 2007, you can
synchronize messages in subfolders you create. In the
Messaging
application, press
Menu (right softkey) and select Tools > Manage Folders.
Folders containing subfolders display a plus sign (+). Select the + to view
the subfolders. Check the box to the left of any subfolder you want to sync.

If you synchronize email with Microsoft
®
Exchange Server 2007, and you
receive a message containing a link to a document on SharePoint or an
internal file server, you can view the document by selecting the link.
