CHAPTER 1: Email Set Up
46
If you have turned on the Wireless Reconcile and
want to get rid of old email that you deleted from
either your main email inbox or from your
BlackBerry, then press the Menu key and select
Purge Deleted Items, and then select the email
address.
TIP: Clean Up Your Main Email Inbox On the Road
If you like to keep your main email inbox (which you view on your computer) cleaned up, make
sure to keep Wireless Reconcile turned On. Just use downtime during the day to clean up
your BlackBerry email inbox. This way, any email messages you delete on your BlackBerry
(such as spam or other unnecessary emails), will not appear in your computer's email inbox. It
is quite refreshing to come back to a very clean inbox after a day away from your desk.

Sync Google Contacts Using Email Setup

If you use Google for email and to manage your contacts, then you can set up a wireless
sync for your Google Contacts. This is a great feature because you no longer need to
connect your Bold with a sync cable to your computer to update contacts changes
between your Bold and Google. The contact updates, like email, all happen
automatically and wirelessly.

Setting Up Google Wireless Contacts Syncing

A new feature with BlackBerry 5.0 system software and BlackBerry Internet Service
software (assuming your carrier has upgraded) is that you now can select wireless
contact syncing for Google. To do so, follow these steps.
CAUTION: You can also sync your Google Contacts using the Google Sync app (see page
305). Do not try to sync Google Contacts with both methods--- -you are asking for trouble.
Instead, if you choose to use this method for contacts syncing, then use Google Sync for only
your Google Calendar.
