How can I use Email on my netBook?

You can use your netBook to send and receive email messages using either one, or both, of the following methods:

1.Connecting by telephone line to a ‘Remote’ mailbox. This is when you make a ‘live’ connection to your email mailbox via a telephone line (without needing a PC). For example, you could access your personal mailbox by dialling your Internet Service Provider (ISP), or access your work mailbox by dialling your company’s service provider or office mailbox.

What to do next…

If you want to access your work mailbox, you will first need to contact your network administrator to find out whether you can make a ‘remote’ (dial-up) connection to your mailbox.

See ‘What type of Email accounts can I use?’ to continue.

2.Connecting to a PC which can access your mailbox. This is when you connect directly to a PC which can access your mailbox. Using PsiWin’s ‘Email Synchronization’, you can write emails off-line on your netBook, and then connect to your PC to send and receive messages.

How do I do this?

To access your mailbox via a PC, you will first need to install PsiWin on the PC and set up ‘Email Synchronization’. This guide does not include information on Email Synchronization. If you wish to use Email Synchronization see the PsiWin CD ROM.
