Creating a synchronize-only account
A synchronize-only e-mail account enables you to download, view, and manage
e-mail between the handheld and a desktop e-mail application, such as Microsoft
Outlook, by performing a HotSync operation with the cradle/cable. You can’t send
and receive messages wirelessly or with a modem for any account of this type.
NOTE You can create a synchronize-only account only on a Windows computer.
If you are setting up a synchronize-only e-mail acco unt and have a well-known ISP
such as Earthlink or Mindspring, many of the required settings are automatically
configured during the account setup.
For other ISPs, you need the following information:
The protocol used for incoming e-mail, such as POP or IMAP
The name of the incoming mail server
The name of the outgoing mail (SMTP) server
Whether your e-mail account requires any encryption, such as APOP or ESMTP
Your e-mail address and password
NOTE Information about your e-mail account is available from the e-mail provider.
Depending on the type of e-mail service you have, you may be able to access this
information by going to the e-mail provider’s web site or by contacting the provider ’s
customer support.
See “Editing e-mail accounts” in Chapter 3 for information about editing
e-mail accounts.
