Please log in for more thread options Until the AKU2.0 devices come on the market later this quarter and allow
proper Push E-mail sync from the Exchange server, you have two options:
- "Push" mail. This sends an SMS to the device, which then does the pull
sync. This requires a link to an SMS sender, and a device that is also a
phone to receive the SMS. Can be expensive if you have lots of e-mails.
- Timed sync. The device can sync based on a schedule on the device. This
can be as low as every 5 minutes. This can get expensive if you don't
receive much e-mail, as the sync has to happen even if there is no mail to
pull back.
Set-up details for this are available here:

And to get ready for the AKU2.0 devices, you need to:
1) Upgrade your Front End Server to Exchange 2003 Service Pack 2 - you do
NOT need to upgrade all the Back-end servers.
2) Extend your ISA or other Firewall timeout to 1800 seconds (30 minutes) -
the reason for this is that the Push Model needs the SSL connection to stay
open (but not using data) for >15 minutes.
Cheers, Chris
