The wireless email reconciliation feature is designed to reconcile email between your smartphone and the email application on
your computer over the wireless network. When you file or delete email messages on your smartphone, these email messages

in the email application on your computer should be reflected on your smartphone.
In rare cases, if your smartphone doesn't recognize fields in a contact, calendar entry, or email account, some data or email
can't be synchronized or reconciled.
If wireless data synchronization isn't available on your smartphone or if you turned off this feature, you can use the
BlackBerry® Desktop Software to synchronize your organizer data. For more information, see the Help in the BlackBerry
Desktop Software.

update any software. Maintaining a current backup file on your computer might allow you to recover smartphone data if your
smartphone is lost, stolen, or corrupted by an unforeseen issue.
