Before using Messages

Before you can send and receive any messages (except for SMS) you need to set up the necessary accounts.

A simple way of setting up an Internet or e-mail account is to ask your service provider to send you a message that contains the required information to create an account automatically on your P800. You can also use the web configurator on www.SonyEricsson.com. Received auto configuration messages are stored in the Auto setup account Inbox.

See “Getting started with Internet and Messages” on page 161.

Folders in Messages

Messaging accounts can have the following folders: Inbox,

Outbox, Draft and Sent.

Inbox

Inbox contains received messages. You can reply to, forward, and delete messages, but not edit them.

Outbox

Outbox contains messages that are ready to be sent. If you are creating several e-mails, and not using GPRS, you can reduce connection time by saving them to Outbox and then connect and send them all at the same time.

To save an e-mail message to Outbox

1.After composing your message, select Send.

2.Select Save to outbox.

Messages that you send from an e-mail synchronization account are always saved to Outbox and sent from your PC after your next synchronization.

Draft

Draft contains messages that are not ready to be sent.

To store a new message in Draft

• Create the message and exit without selecting Send.

To move a message from Outbox to Draft

• Open the Outbox message list and select Message > Move to

Draft.

Sent

Sent contains messages you have sent from your P800.

TipTo avoid running out of storage space on your P800, make it a habit to regularly clear old messages from your Sent folder, especially those with attachments.
