    Adding details to e-mail items
    Before you send your e-mail item, you can attach additional attributes 
    to it, such as a signature or a priority level. These features are 
    dependent on the desktop E-mail application you use. If your 
    application does not support the attribute you select, your handheld 
    cannot attach that attribute to the e-mail item.
    The following details are available:
    The Priority and BCC settings are valid only for the current e-mail 
    item and must be set for each item you create.
    PriorityFlags an e-mail item as High, Normal, or Low 
    priority.
    BCCCreates a blind carbon copy field in the New 
    Message screen. 
    SignatureAttaches previously defined text as the closing of an 
    e-mail item. See “Adding a signature to your e-mail 
    item” later in this chapter.
    Confirm 
    ReadRequests a confirmation telling you when the 
    e-mail item was read.
    Confirm 
    DeliveryRequests a confirmation telling you when the 
    e-mail item was delivered.

    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Tap the Priority pick list and select the priority you want.

    only if your desktop E-Mail application supports this feature.
    Sending a blind carbon copy
    To add a BCC field to your e-mail item:

    4. Tap the BCC: field and enter an address. 
    Adding a signature to your e-mail item
    A signature consists of information about yourself that is appended to 
    your e-mail item as its closing. For example, a signature can contain 
    your name, address, phone and fax numbers, and any other text you 
    want to include. By defining such information as a signature, you save 
    yourself the trouble of having to enter it every time you create an 
    e-mail item. 
    Adding a signature to your message is a two-part process. First, you 
    create your signature. Then you select the Signature option. 
    To create a signature:
    1. Tap the Menu icon  .
    2. Tap Options, and then tap Preferences.
    3. Tap the Signature text field and enter the text of your signature. 
    4. Tap OK.

    2. Tap the Signature check box to select it and add your signature to 
    the e-mail item.
    Note:The check box stays selected, so all subsequent e-mail 
    items you create will also contain your signature until you 
    deselect the Signature option. 
    3. Tap OK.
    Note:The signature does not display in your e-mail item; only your 
    recipient sees the signature.
    Requesting confirmations
    To receive a confirmation when your e-mail item is read:
    1. In the New Message screen, tap Details.
    2. Tap the Confirm Read check box to select it. 
    3. Tap OK.

    2. Select the Confirm Delivery check box to select it. 
    3. Tap OK.
    Storing e-mail to be sent later
    When you send e-mail from your handheld, it actually stores the 
    e-mail in the Outbox folder until the next time you synchronize your 
    handheld with your computer. During synchronization, all e-mail 
    stored in the Outbox folder is transferred to the Outbox folder in your 
    desktop E-Mail application. E-mail created on your handheld is sent 
    out the next time you send mail from your desktop E-Mail application.
    To send e-mail:
    nAfter you create an e-mail item, tap Send. 
    Editing unsent e-mail
    You can make changes to an e-mail that has not yet been sent, as long 
    as you have not yet performed a HotSync operation. When you edit an 
    e-mail item, your handheld removes the item from the Outbox folder 
    and takes you back to the New Message screen, where you can edit the 
    item and resend it, save it as a draft, or delete it. 
    						
    							Chapter 6 Page 155
    To retrieve an e-mail item:
    1. In the Message list, tap Outbox from the pick list in the upper-right 
    corner.
    2. Tap the e-mail item you want to retrieve.
    3. Tap Edit.
    Draft e-mail
    Sometimes you may not want to send an e-mail item immediately; for 
    example, you may want to add additional information before sending 
    it. Your handheld stores such e-mail items in the Draft folder until you 
    are ready to edit them again.
    Note:When you’re creating or editing an e-mail item, you can also 
    save the item as a draft by canceling it. When you cancel an 
    item, your handheld opens a dialog asking if you want to save 
    the e-mail item. If you tap Yes, your handheld saves the item 
    in the Draft folder.
    To save an e-mail item as a draft:
    1. Create an e-mail item.

    2. Tap the draft you want to display.
    3. Tap Edit.
    4. Enter your changes; then either save the e-mail item again as a 
    draft, or tap Send to move the item to your Outbox folder.
    Filing e-mail
    Your handheld can store e-mail you receive or create in the Filed 
    folder. The contents of this folder do not automatically synchronize 
    with your desktop E-Mail application during a HotSync operation. 
    Your handheld, however, stores a backup copy of the Filed folder on 
    your computer hard disk.
    To file e-mail:
    1. Open an e-mail item.
    2. Tap the Menu icon  .
    3. Tap Message, and then tap File.
    4. Tap No to save the e-mail item and move it to the Filed folder, or 
    tap Yes to file the item and keep a copy in the Inbox.
    To remove e-mail from the Filed folder:
    1. In the Message list, tap Filed from the pick list in the upper-right 
    corner.
    2. Tap the e-mail item you want to restore.

    3. Tap Edit to display and modify the item.
    Tip:After you display and modify the e-mail item, you can send it, 
    save it as a draft, or return it to the Filed folder.
    Deleting e-mail
    Your handheld stores deleted e-mail in the Deleted folder until you 
    perform the next HotSync operation. If you delete an e-mail item from 
    the handheld, it is also deleted from your desktop E-Mail application 
    when you perform the next HotSync operation.
    To delete e-mail:
    1. Open the e-mail item you want to delete.
    2. Tap Delete. 
    3. If you selected the Preferences option to confirm deletion, tap Yes. 
    Removing e-mail from the Deleted folder
    You can reverse the deletion of an e-mail item (by removing it from the 
    Deleted folder) as long as you have not performed a HotSync 
    operation or purged the contents of the Deleted folder.
    To remove an e-mail item you received from the Deleted folder:
    1. In the Message list, tap Deleted from the pick list in the upper-right 
    corner.
    2. Tap the e-mail item you want to restore. 
    3. Tap Undelete to move the selected item to the Inbox and mark it as 
    read.
    To remove an e-mail item you created from the Deleted folder:
    1. In the Message list, tap Deleted from the pick list in the upper-right 
    corner.
    2. Tap the e-mail item you want to restore. 
    3. Tap Edit to display and modify the item.
    Note:After you display and modify the e-mail item, you can send it 
    or save it as a draft.
    Purging deleted e-mail
    Your handheld stores deleted e-mail in the Deleted folder until you 
    perform a HotSync operation, so deleted e-mail can claim storage 
    space. To avoid this problem, purge the contents of your Deleted 
    folder. E-mail that you purge is still deleted from your desktop E-Mail 
    application when you perform the next HotSync operation. 
    						
    							Page 158  Communicating Using Your Handheld
    To purge the contents of the Deleted folder:

    for local and remote synchronization. For example, you may want to 
    download all of your e-mail during local synchronization and only
