CHAPTER 15 Sending and Receiving Email Messages

Creating an account

The steps for creating an account are different depending on how you plan to send and receive email:

Wireless only If you plan only to send and receive email wirelessly from your handheld, set up the account on your handheld by following the procedures below.

Synchronize only (Windows only) If you plan only to synchronize email on your handheld with email on your computer, and never to send and receive email wirelessly from your handheld, do not set up the account on your handheld. Instead, follow the steps for setting synchronization options on your computer later in this chapter. When you are finished, synchronize to transfer the account settings to your handheld.

Both wireless and synchronize (Windows only) If you plan both to send and receive email wirelessly and to synchronize email on your handheld with email on your computer, you must set up the account on your handheld and follow the steps for setting synchronization options on your computer. If you do not set up the account in both places, synchronizing email does not work.

[ ! ] IMPORTANT If you plan to synchronize your new handheld with an existing username from another handheld, you must do so before you enter your email account information in the VersaMail application. If you enter the email account information first and then synchronize your handheld to an existing username, the email account information you entered is overwritten.
