E-mail application

The e-mail application uses a packet data connection (network service)
to allow you to access your e-mail account from your phone when you
are not in the office or at home. This e-mail application is different from
the SMS e-mail function. To use the e-mail function on your phone, you
need a compatible e-mail system.

You can write, send, and read e-mail with your phone. You can also save
and delete the e-mail on a compatible PC. Your phone supports POP3
and IMAP4 e-mail servers.

Before you can send and retrieve any e-mail messages, you must do the
following:

• Obtain a new e-mail account or use your current account. To check

the availability of your e-mail account, contact your e-mail service
provider.

• Check your e-mail settings with your network operator or e-mail

service provider. You may receive the e-mail configuration settings
as a configuration message. See “Configuration settings service,”
p. 10. You can also enter the settings manually. See “Configuration,”
p. 72.

To activate the e-mail settings, select

Menu

>

Messaging

>

Message

settings

>

E-mail messages

. See “E-mail,” p. 49.

This application does not support keypad tones.

defined in the phone. To enter the settings manually, select

options allow you to add, delete, and change the

e-mail settings. Make sure that you have defined the correct preferred
access point for your operator. See “Configuration,” p 72.
The e-mail application requires an Internet access point without a
proxy. WAP access points normally include a proxy and do not work with
the e-mail application.
