Email checking function

When you first start up your system, a Mail Checking dialog box will be displayed. In this dialog box, you have the option to launch the program at startup or not, set the time for mail checking, etc. If you already have an email account, you can fill in the Mail Properties in the dialog box.

The Mail Server is the server name where you get your email, for example: JohnSmith@hotmail.com, the Mail Server is hotmail.com.

Aside from the email checking function, there is a mail button that is used to launch the email application. It is located above the keyboard right below the LCD. The mail button LED will flash when the user has received an incoming email.

You can also access the Mail Checking dialog box by clicking on Start, Programs, Launch Manager, then click on E-Mail checking setting.
