Chapter 8: Using the THINChome network feature

G.Using the Personal E-mail feature

The Personal E-mail feature allows you to:

1)View received messages.

2)View attached JPEG files.

In addition, you can create up to four different user e-mail accounts, which can be locked to prevent unwanted access (- page 99).

You can access the Personal E-mail feature in any of the following ways:

Select Personal E-mail from the Applications menu.

Open the THINC menu and select Personal E-mail.

Press Twhen the “unread e-mail notification” appears (see below).

Unread E-mail Notification

When the TV detects unread e-mail in a user’s inbox, a notification will appear in the bottom right corner of the screen that contains the envelope icon, user’s name, and number of unread messages.

my name x 57

Note:

You can specify the frequency at which the TV checks for unread e-mails by selecting Check for New Mail in the E-mail Profile Setup menu (- page 99, step 8).

The unread e-mail notification will not display when other applications are running (such as the Picture Viewer or Audio Player).

The unread e-mail notification will not appear in any video recorded from the TV using the video outputs.

To open the Inbox, press Twhile the unread e-mail notification is on-screen.

To dismiss the unread e-mail notification and continue watching TV, press O.

E-mail Inbox

To open the Inbox, press Twhile the unread e-mail notification is on-screen.

In the Inbox view, unread e-mails are denoted by an envelope icon.
