Set up your device to synchronize Outlook e-mail with
the computer
If you have installed the synchronization software on your PC and created a
partnership with your device, then your device is ready to send and receive
Outlook e-mail.
If you have not yet installed the synchronization software nor created a
partnership, please do so by following the procedures in Chapter 5.
Tip To set up your company e-mail account so that you can access Outlook
e-mail messages wirelessly, you must set up your device to synchronize via
an over-the-air connection with your company’s Exchange Server. For more
information about synchronizing with your company e-mail server, see
Chapter 8.
Set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account
Set up a POP3 or IMAP4 e-mail account on your device if you have an e-mail
account from an Internet service provider (ISP) or other e-mail provider, or a
web-based account such as Gmail, Yahoo! Mail Plus, etc. You can also add a
work account that you access using a VPN server connection as a POP3/
IMAP4 account.
1. Tap Start > Messaging > Setup E-mail.
2. Enter the E-mail address and Password for the e-mail account and
select the Save password option. Tap Next.
3. Tap Next. E-mail Setup searches your device for preloaded e-mail
configuration settings. If the device cannot find the server settings
for the specified e-mail account, your device needs to connect to the
Internet and try to download the settings. If it cannot find the settings
online, you need to enter the settings manually.
4. Enter Your name and the Account display name and then tap Next.
5. In the Automatic Send/Receive list, choose how frequent you want
e-mail messages to be automatically sent and downloaded on your
device. Tap Finish.
Tip When you are using an e-mail domain name but hosted by a different e-mail
provider (For example, the e-mail account "benjamin@startup.com" is hosted
by "email.com"), choose the Custom Domain option in the E-mail Setup
wizard to manually set up the e-mail account.
