7.9 Supported e-mail attachments

Other solutions

If the e-mail server does not support POP3/IMAP4 and SMTP protocols, it may be possible to use converter software that provides necessary POP3/IMAP4 and SMTP protocol support for the e-mail server.

Examples of converter software include Infinite InterChange by Infinite Technologies. Infinite InterChange creates POP3, IMAP4, and HTTP/HTML support. More information on the Infinite InterChange can be found at www.ihub.com.

Additionally, connection to the e-mail server can also be established with the Nokia 9290 Communicator’s Web browser if the e-mail server supports HTTP/HTML access.

Note: With the Nokia 9290 Communicator, you can also read Web mails, i.e. Hotmail and Yahoo mail.

E-mail attachments are supported and downloaded attachments that can be viewed on the Nokia 9290 Communicator. Initially supported attachment types are marked with an asterisk (*) in Table 1 (on the next page). Other attachment types in Table 1 are supported if the appropriate application or converter is installed to the device. New attachment types can be supported via add-on applications installed to the Nokia 9290 Communicator. Downloaded attachments can also be saved to files and transferred to a PC for viewing. Overall use of attachments is rather limited by the small disk space and amount of free memory. A memory card can be used to expand the available disk space for messaging.
