The Network application in the settings tab must be configured and a connection to the network must be made (network icon in the status bar on the bottom of the screen) in order for this program to send and receive e-mails. This application can handle only a limited amount of embedded HTML in the message field. Your e-mail server settings for incoming and outgoing mail can be set to the same as those of your home computer.

15.2Opera™ Browser

This is an Internet browser application allowing you to access and display web pages. The Network application in the Settings tab must be configured and a connection to the network must be made (network icon in the status bar on the bottom of the screen) in order to browse web pages. This browser does not have plug-ins like desktop computer browsers, thus web pages with Flash™ animation, Active X™ controls, media, or PDF files will not display. If it is possible,

Opera™ will ask you if you would like to download the file. You can then open the downloaded file in an application for that particular file type. Pdf files can for example be viewed with an included PDF viewer found on the Applications tab. Other files might need to be viewed on your computer. There is a ? help icon in Opera™ menu bar which explains how to use the application.
