Z-Push is ready to serve your mobile with Push E-mail. Please note that
Z-Push still polls your IMAP server for E-mails on regular intervals.
So there will be a delay of a few seconds for the E-mails to reach your
mobile device.
But once Z-Push has received an E-mail, it will push it instantly, depending
on the ActiveSync settings (as explained in the section Connecting from the
Mobile).
Connecting from the Mobile
The steps below are for a mobile/PDA running Windows Mobile 6.0. For other
versions of Windows Mobile, these steps should remain, logically, the same.
On the next page, we'll tell you how to configure push email services on your
windows mobile PDA. It only requires a few steps.

 |
| Click on Start Menu. Select Programs from
amogst the list of programs. Click on ActiveSync (green icon) |
The ActiveSync configuration wizard will
pop-up. Click on Menu (bottom-right). Select Add Server Source. |
 |
 |
| Type in hostname. This is services. abc. com
in our ase. Uncheck the checkbox for SSL, unless your Apache server is
already configured |
Enter IMAP username and password, the same
that you would use to retrieve your E-mails on an E-mail client |
 |
 |
| Z-Push can sync calendar, contacts and
tasks. But here we have configured it only for E-mail. So uncheck the boxes
for others |
Click on E-mail > Settings. You can setup to
download E-mails by number of days, the E-mail format and the size of the
E-mail to download |
 |
 |
| Clicking on Next will start syncing. If you
get error message, check if you have supplied correct username and password |
Schedule when you want ActiveSync to pick up
E-mails. “As items arrive” will send them as Z-Push retrieves it from IMAP |
 |
 |
| ActiveSync, for the first time, will
download all the E-mails (depending on your E-mail settings/options) |
Click on 'Start' Menu and then on'Messaging'.
This will launch Pocket Outlook. Here you will see new Outlook E-mail |
