Accessing corporate e-mail
Many corporate e-mail servers—including Microsoft Exchange and Lotus Domino
servers—support direct IMAP access. If you are accessing your e-mail using the
VersaMail application and an 802.11 network behind your company’s firewall, you
may be able to directly access your business e-mail. If your company requires extra
security or you are accessing your e-mail through either a dial-up connection or a
LAN outside your company’s firewall, you will need to use a virtual private
network (VPN) client before you can access your business e-mail. Check with your
company’s network administrator for information about VPN access, your
business e-mail username and password, and IMAP and SMTP settings.
Using Palm Desktop Link
NOTE Palm Desktop Link runs on Windows computers only.
Palm Desktop Link provides you with secure, wireless access to your business
e-mail from your Palm i705 handheld. Desktop Link runs continuously in the
background on your Windows computer and securely and wirelessly forwards a
copy of messages received in your Exchange corporate e-mail account to the
Business account in the VersaMail application on your Palm i705 handheld.
The VersaMail application version 2.0 runs with version 1.2 of Palm Desktop Link;
if you are running an earlier version of Desktop Link, you must upgrade to version
1.2. See “Installing the VersaMail application” in Chapter 1 for details. For more
information about installing, setting up, and using Palm Desktop Link, see the
Palm™ Desktop Link Handbook.
