Setting up and managing e-mail accounts
With the VersaMail application, you can access e-mail accounts from providers
such as Earthlink or Yahoo. You may also access your corporate e-mail with the
appropriate mail server configuration. See
“Using a corporate e-mail account”
later in this chapter for more information.
You can add up to eight e-mail accounts on your handheld by setting up a
connection to an e-mail service provider or synchronizing to a desktop e-mail
application. For example, if you have a Yahoo e-mail account with POP access, you
can create a new account in the VersaMail application and name that new account
Yahoo, so that you can send and receive e-mail on your handheld using your Yahoo
account.
Account and connection types
Two types of e-mail accounts are supported:
■
Network:
You can send and receive e-mail directly to and from your handheld
by connecting with an e-mail service provider.
■
Synchronize Only (Windows computers only):
You can download, view, and
manage e-mail between the handheld and a desktop e-mail application, such as
Microsoft Outlook, by performing a HotSync operation using the cradle/cable.

of this type.
