INBOX

Inbox is a messaging program that runs on your Handheld PC. With Inbox, you can send and receive email messages using a dial-up connection and a PC modem card. You can send and receive messages either through the Internet by using an Internet mail service, or you can connect to your corporate mail server by using a Remote Access Service (RAS).

If you are using a Microsoft messaging program (such as Exchange or Outlook) on your desktop computer, you can also transfer messages between Inbox and that messaging program over a serial connection. Backing up your email mes- sages is made easy with the HP Data Backup.

This chapter describes how to set up the Inbox dial-up connections, how to create, read, send and receive messages, and how to transfer messages between Inbox and your desktop messaging program.

You can download messages from Exchange or Outlook to your Handheld PC to read while away from your desk. You can compose replies and then send them the next time you connect to your desktop computer. To do this, you only need a serial connection between the two computers.

You can also use Inbox to send and receive mail over a dial-up connection. First, you will need to do the following:

•Contact an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to obtain an Internet mail account or contact your company’s network administrator to obtain a RAS account. Then set up the connection between your Handheld PC and the service provider, as described in, “Connecting to an ISP (Internet Service Provider)”.
