–When this field is set to On, it will be possible for the TV to receive e-mails from any PC to remotely schedule and modify recordings and reminders.

–When this field is set to Off, it will not be possible for the TV to receive any e-mail, the other fields in this window will be disabled (“grayed out”), and it will not be possible to remotely schedule recordings or reminders via e-mail.

Also see the “Security settings” table on the next page.

“ID Required” field

You can select On or Off for the ID Required field.

–When this field is set to On (recommended), you must include the ID that you enter in the “ID” field in all e-mails you send to the TV. This is a security feature to protect your TV from unauthorized e-mail access.

–When this field is set to Off, you do not need to include the ID in e-mails you send to the TV.

Also see the “Security settings” table on the next page.

“ID” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter six to 16 numbers and/or letters to create your ID (spaces and punctuation are not allowed).

Also see the “Security settings” table on the next page.

Note:

•To help protect your privacy, you may want to choose an ID that is different from any of your usual passwords or security PINs (e.g., different from your personal e-mail password, banking login code, social security number, etc.).

•The ID is case sensitive.

“E-mail Address” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the TV’s dedicated e-mail address (different from your personal e-mail address). You will send e-mails to this address to add, modify, or delete schedules and reminders.

“Account” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the TV’s e-mail account login. Depending on your ISP, this may be the entire e-mail address or just the characters in the e-mail address before the “@” sign.

“Password” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the password for the TV’s e-mail account.

Note: To help protect your other personal Internet or e-mail accounts, create a password that is significantly different from any of your usual passwords and security PINs (e.g., different from your e-mail password, banking log-ons, social security code etc.).

“Incoming Mail Server” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the incoming (POP3) mail server that hosts the TV’s e-mail account.

Note: The TV does not support encrypted e-mail.

“Outgoing Mail Server” field

Use the on-screen keyboard to enter the outgoing (SMTP) mail server associated with the TV’s e-mail account. (The TV will use this server for sending reply e-mails to your personal e-mail account.)

“E-mail Authorization” field

You can select On or Off for the “E-mail Authorization” field.

–When this field is set to On (recommended), the TV will only accept e-mails from the e-mail address you specify in the “Authorized E-mail” field (e.g., your personal e-mail address). The TV will delete any e-mails not sent from this authorized e-mail address.

This is a security feature to protect the TV from unauthorized e-mail access and from replying to unwanted e-mail, such as spam.

–When this field is set to Off, it will be possible for the TV to accept e-mails from any e-mail address (depending on the other settings in the “E-mail Scheduling Setup” window).

Also see the “Security settings” table on the next page.

“Authorized E-mail” field

Enter the single e-mail address that is authorized to send e-mails to the TV (e.g., your personal e-mail address).

–To enable this field, you must set the “E-mail Authorization” field to On.

–This field can be left blank if you have the “E-mail Authorization” field set to Off.

Also see the “Security settings” table on the next page.
