Exchange Server Settings Question

[aef61]

Hi - I'm able to manipulate the size of the emails that are downloaded and the number of days email is stored when I use my Yahoo account, which I believe is a pop3.

However, when I try to access the same settings within my exchange server account, they're just not there.

The pathing is within the Account Settings within the specific email account.

Any ideas how I can fix this? I'm in the midst of trading to the Q from the Curve, am a heavy corporate email user, and this is the one big barrier for me...each corporate email comes into the box only partially downloaded and the inbox only goes back 3 days.
Thanks very much

Thanks -- got it to work, problem is:
I put the settings to keep the email for the last 30 days and the max email size...my Q didn't like that very much! I finally removed the battery got back into the settings and decided to keep 2 weeks worth of email at a size of 20KB....are there some norms out there for the right combination of email storage without sacrificing device performance?

you probably have a boat load of email from the past 30 days and your Q felt it! I do 30 days just fine...

on your pc you could minimize some of it and then try again? you could look in the hacks and have your mail saved on the storage card as well to save device room. I think the 9h can do that....

I use Exchange server A TON. The last poster is right. Find the hack that saves the Inbox and attachments onthe storage cardn change the settings a above & you are in business.
