Direct POP
connection to
server
Select this option to synchronize an account by connecting
directly with a POP server. You must enter the information
about the server in the VersaMail application on your
handheld when you create the e-mail account to access the
server. You will enter information about the incoming (POP)
server, the outgoing (SMTP) server, your e-mail username,
your password, and your e-mail address.
During the HotSync operation, the conduit reads the settings
you made. If the settings do not exist or all server information
is wrong, an error is reported in the HotSync.log file. However,
if the incoming server (POP) is correct, the Inbox is
synchronized if the option to synchronize the Inbox is selected.
If the outgoing server (SMTP) is correct, the Outbox is
synchronized (send e-mail) if you selected the option to
synchronize the Outbox. If neither is correct, then nothing
happens.
If you want to synchronize e-mail for an account that requires
APOP authentication, you must select the option to use APOP
on your handheld. See “Adding APOP to an account” in
Chapter 6 for details.
If you want to synchronize e-mail for an account that requires
ESMTP authentication (for example, Yahoo accounts require
ESMTP authentication), you must select the option to use
ESMTP on your handheld. See “Adding ESMTP to an account”
in Chapter 6 for details.
