Ok ... Picked up my Treo Tuesday and finally decided to play with the email today. And found someone interesting things.

For starters ... I do have an Exchange account at work, but it requires accessing via HTTP settings in Outlook 2003, so I'm assuming I can't do that on the Treo.

I've had the same issue. I've noticed this even when I leave the messaging application running in the background. Thoughts?
