Outlook Emails Deleting

[Truck1008]

Can someone tell me how to delete an Outlook email message on my handheld (mogul) without having it delete the same message on the exchange server? My blackberry would prompt me to delete on handheld, or both, which was an option I would like to have. Thanks

When you configure an Outlook or Email account on your phone there is a setting by the end of the configuration that specifies if you want to delete the message from the server or to leave it intact.

You can edit these settings by going into options on the main menu of your messaging screen. Edit your email account. Go through the settings and when you get to the screen with the [Automatic: Send/Receive] [Download Messages]. There is a link at the bottom saying Advanced Settings, click on it. Whithin this menu there is a scroll down option that allows you to either delete the message off the server or to keep it on the server. chose the one you want. Then save your setup.

Thanks for your reply Carlos. The options that you mentioned are available for my POP3 email account settings, but are not available when I enter the options for my Outlook email account. Thanks

Hmm my last gues would be that when you go into the outlook settings on your phone chose only to download the header or a small portion of the email that way it keeps the orginal / full message on the server. That is weird because I delete my email from outlook on my phone and it doesnt delete it from the server unless i go into outlook on my comp and once i delete it from there it will delete it from my phone once I sync.

I have found IMAP works a lot better then POP or any other feature. It's like a mirror image of looking at your email. Now with google supporting IMAP it's a nice token.

That's right, but with imap account you have to select too in: "option -> stockage [TAB] -> emptied delete folder: immediately".
Otherwise, messages will not be deleted from your computer.

It appears to me that if you are using exchange activesync, then you get exactly what is on the exchange server in the inbox.
I have set up some folders to help keep my PDA inbox uncluttered.
