Manage Folders
Each Messaging account has its own folder hierarchy with five
default Messaging folders: Inbox, Outbox, Deleted Items, Drafts,
and Sent Items. The messages you receive and send through the
account are stored in these folders. You can also create additional
folders within each hierarchy. The Deleted Items folder contains
messages that have been deleted on the device. The behavior
of the Deleted Items and Sent Items folders depends on the
Messaging options you have chosen.
If you use an Outlook E-mail account, e-mail messages in the
Inbox folder in Outlook will be synchronized automatically with
your PPC-6700. You can elect to synchronize additional folders
by designating them for synchronization. The folders you create
and the messages you move will then be mirrored on the e-mail
server. For example, if you move two messages from the Inbox
folder to a folder named Family, and you have designated Family
for synchronization, the server creates a copy of the Family folder
and copies the messages to that folder. You can then read the
messages while you are away from your PC.
If you use a text message account, messages are stored in the
Inbox folder. If you use a POP3 account and you move e-mail
messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the
messages on the device and their copies on the e-mail server.
The next time you connect, the e-mail server will detect that the
messages are missing from the Inbox folder on the device and
will delete them from the e-mail server. This prevents having
duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no
longer have access to messages that you move to folders created
from anywhere except the device.
If you use an IMAP4 account, the folders you create and the
e-mail messages you move are mirrored on the e-mail server.
Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to
your e-mail server, whether it is from your PPC-6700 or PC. This
synchronization of folders occurs whenever you connect to your
e-mail server, create new folders, or rename/delete folders when
connected. You can also set different download options for each
folder.
