Connecting directly to an e-mail server

You can send and receive e-mail messages by connecting to an e-mail server. You’ll need to set up a remote connection to a network or an ISP, and a connection to your e-mail server.

When you connect to the e-mail server, new messages are downloaded to the phone’s Inbox folder. Also, messages in the phone’s Outbox folder are sent and messages that have been deleted on the e-mail server are removed from the phone’s message folders.

Folder behavior with a direct connection to an e-mail server

The behavior of the folders you create depends on whether you are using POP3 or IMAP4.

If you use POP3 and you move e-mail messages to a folder you created, the link is broken between the messages on the phone and their copies on the mail server. The next time you connect, the mail server will see that the messages are missing from the phone and delete them.

Message, Internet, and Messenger

This prevents you from having duplicate copies of a message, but it also means that you will no longer have access to messages that you move to folders created from anywhere except the phone.

If you use IMAP4, the folders you created and the e-mail messages you moved are mirrored on the server. Therefore, messages are available to you anytime you connect to your mail server. This synchronisation of folders occurs whenever you connect to your mail server; create new folders or rename/ delete folders when connected.

Creating an e-mail account

You need to create a new account to be used for retrieving and sending e-mail messages.

To make a new account:

1.From the Outlook E-mail screen, tap Menu Tools New Account...

2.Select Other (POP3/IMAP) and tap Next.
