Chapter4 Synchronizing E-mail Between the Handheld and the Desktop
112

Synchronizing multiple accounts

You can synchronize more than one account during the same HotSync operation.
NOTE If you want to synchronize both a Microsoft Outlook and a Microsoft Outlook
Express account, you must have Microsoft Outlook set as the default e-mail client on
the desktop.
The maximum number of accounts you can synchronize are as follows:
■1 Simple MAPI account (for example, an account set up using Outlook Express
or Eudora)
■1 Extended MAPI account (for example, an account set up using Outlook)
■1 Lotus Notes account
■5 combined direct POP or direct IMAP accounts
If you attempt to synchronize more than the limit for a particular type of account
during a HotSync operation, you will receive an alert prompting you to deactivate
any accounts over the allowed number.
Using SSL with the conduit
When you set up an e-mail account, you can choose to use a secure connection
(Secure Sockets Layer, or SSL) for sending and receiving e-mail messages. The
Palm VersaMailHotSync Conduit supports SSL when synchronizing with an
e-mail account only if that account uses one of the following desktop e-mail
applications (mail clients):
■Outlook
■Outlook Express
■Eudora
The conduit does not support SSL for accounts set up as direct POP or direct IMAP
or for Microsoft Exchange or Lotus Notes accounts.
