Deciding Which Information to Synchronize
By default, ActiveSync does not automatically synchronize all types of Outlook information.
You can use ActiveSync options to turn synchronization for specific information types on and
off. Items that you synchronize with Microsoft Exchange Server cannot also be synchronized
with Outlook on a desktop computer.
Synchronizing Outlook E-mail
When you select Inbox for synchronization in ActiveSync, e-mail messages are synchronized
as part of the general synchronization process. During synchronization, the following events
occur:
Messages are copied from the Outlook Inbox folder on your desktop computer, or from
Microsoft Exchange Server, to the Inbox folder of the Outlook E-mail account on your
Smartphone.
By default, when synchronizing your Outlook E-mail account with your desktop
computer or Microsoft Exchange Server, you receive only messages from the last three
days and the first 500 bytes of each new message.
The messages on your Smartphone and on your desktop computer are linked. When you
delete a message on your Smartphone, it is deleted from your desktop computer the next
time you synchronize, and vice versa.
Messages in subfolders of other Outlook e-mail folders are synchronized only if the
folders have been selected for synchronization in your Outlook E-mail account on your
Smartphone.
N O T E
Text messages are not received in Messaging through synchronization. Instead, they are sent to
your Smartphone by way of your service provider.
Synchronizing Calendar
Calendar items stored on your Smartphone can be synchronized with calendar items stored on
your desktop computer or on a Microsoft Exchange server. By default, Calendar items from
the last two weeks are synchronized.
Calendar items created on your Smartphone are copied to your desktop computer and/or
server during synchronization, and vice versa. Similarly, Calendar items that are deleted from
your Smartphone are deleted from your desktop computer and/or server during
synchronization, and vice versa.
