Palm 650 Sending and receiving email, Transferring settings from an existing account Windows only

VersaMail is not an email provider. It works with an account from a provider— your Earthlink or BellSouth account, for example—or a corporate account to transfer messages to your phone.

Sending and receiving email

If you’ve activated data services on your Treo, you’re ready to set up the VersaMail® application on your phone. You can use the VersaMail account with your Earthlink or BellSouth email account or any other POP3 or IMAP email account. You may also be able use VersaMail with a corporate account.

Before you can use VersaMail with a given email account, you need to set up the account in VersaMail. If you have multiple email accounts, you must set up a VersaMail account for each one. You have three setup options:

•On a Windows computer, if the email account is already set up on your computer— for example, if you use Outlook Express on your computer to access your Earthlink account—you can transfer the account settings to your phone in just a few steps.

•On a Windows computer, if this is a new account, you can quickly set up the account on your computer and synchronize the information to your phone.

•For either a new or an existing account, you can set up the account directly on your phone.

If you are setting up a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync® account, see “Working with Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync” on page 73 for more information, and see the VersaMail User Guide on the CD for setup instructions.
