• Messages in the Outbox are sent.

• Messages you’ve previously received and marked “copy” or “move” are

downloaded from the server to the Inbox folder or the selected destination

folder, as described later in “Retrieving messages from the server.”

• The Inbox is updated to display any new message headers.

• If you selected Automatically disconnect when you set up the connection,

the dial-up connection will be disconnected from the service when the above

actions are completed.

• When you disconnect, messages you marked “delete” are deleted both from the

service and from Inbox unless you have selected other options for deleted

items, as described later in “Working in the message list.”

To disconnect from a service

Tap the connect/disconnect button on the toolbar, if you have not selected the

automatic disconnect option or go to Service and tap Disconnect.

Choosing to work online or offline

When you connect to an Internet mail service or to your Exchange or Outlook

mail box, Inbox downloads only the headers of new messages to the Inbox folder,

by default. The original messages remain on the mail server.

You can work in Inbox online, which means that you read and respond to mes-

sages while connected to the server. Or, you can disconnect from the server and

work offline.

• Working online in Inbox is very much like working in a LAN-based email

program. You can read, reply to, or forward messages (which are stored on the

server), and the messages are immediately sent from the Outbox. This saves

storage space on your palmtop PC, since you are only downloading the

message headers. While connected, Inbox may check for new mail

periodically, depending on the service options you select. You can also update

the message list by tapping Refresh on the Service menu.
