Setting Up Exchange ActiveSync
Microsofts ActiveSync synchronizes information on your device
with information on your computer, such as Outlook content.
ActiveSync can also synchronize over a wireless or cellular network
with Microsoft Exchange Server, if your company or service provider
is running Microsoft Exchange Server with Exchange ActiveSync.
Exchange ActiveSync also offers integration with your corporate
Global Address List (GAL).
Before You
Begin:
To wirelessly synchronize your device with a
Microsoft Exchange Server, you must activate
Sprint Vision data services. See the Getting
Started Guide for more information.
Check with your system administrator to make
sure you have an account on the Exchange Server.
Work with your system administrator to gather
the following information:

Exchange Server address and domain name.

Your user name and password.

Any special security requirements, such as SSL

(Secure Sockets Layer) authentication.

If SSL is required, a security certicate if

required for the SSL connection.
Tips: Global Address List (GAL) is the address book that
contains all user, group, and distribution list email
addresses of your organization, and it is stored
on the Exchange Server. By having direct online
access to the GAL from your device, it is quick
and easy for you to plan a meeting and email a
meeting request immediately to anyone in your
organization.
Access to the GAL is available if your organization
is running Microsoft Exchange Server 2003
SP2 and you have completed your rst
synchronization with the Exchange Server.
