You can set up the following types of e-mail accounts on your device:

E-mail account that you have from an Internet Service Provider (ISP) or other e-mail provider.

Web-based e-mail accounts such as Yahoo!® Mail Plus, AOL®, and others.

Custom domain e-mail accounts. The e-mail domain name is hosted by a different e-mail provider. For more information, search for “custom domain e-mail” in the Help on your device.

Work account that you access using a VPN connection.

Synchronizing Outlook e-mail with your computer

If you have installed the synchronization software on your computer and created a partnership with your device, then your device is ready to send and receive Outlook e-mail.

If you have not yet installed the synchronization software nor created a partnership, do so by following the procedures in Chapter 5.

Tip To set up your company e-mail account so that you can access Outlook e-mail messages wirelessly, you must set up your device to synchronize via an over-the-air connection with your company’s Exchange Server. For more information about synchronizing with your company e-mail server, see Chapter 7.

Setting up an Internet e-mail account

Use Windows Mobile’s E-mail Setup Wizard to set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account on your device if you have an e-mail account from an Internet service provider (ISP) or other e-mail service provider, or a web-based account such as Yahoo! Mail Plus or AOL. You can also add a work account that you access using a VPN server connection as a POP3/IMAP4 account.
