To define whether to ignore or receive e-mail:
■ Tap the pick list in the center of the HotSync Options dialog box
and select one of the following settings:
Defining filter strings
E-mail items are filtered based on the information contained in their
To:, From:, and Subj: fields. The information that defines what your
handheld is looking for is called a filter string. You create a filter string
by listing the words you want your handheld to find and separating
them with either a comma or a space. Each word in the filter string is
joined by an implicit OR, so you do not need to enter logical
connectors like AND or OR.
To create a more complex filter, you can define filter strings for the To:,
From:, and Subj: fields simultaneously. Your handheld joins the filter
strings for these fields using an implicit AND; once again, you do not
need to add the logical connector. Your handheld does that for you.
Ignore
Messages
Containing
Tells your handheld to exclude the e-mail items that
meet the criteria you define and download all other e-
mail items during synchronization. In general, this
filter downloads more e-mail during
synchronization because it blocks only one defined
subset of e-mail.
Retrieve
Only Msgs
Containing
Tells your handheld to include only the e-mail items
that meet the criteria you define and to ignore all
other e-mail items during synchronization. This filter
has the potential to block more e-mail during
synchronization because it downloads only one
subset of e-mail.
