Chapter 17 Using Palm™ VersaMail™ Personal E-mail Software
166
Using an ISP
In addition to or instead of using a carrier-provided e-mail account (for example,
an e-mail account from VoiceStream), you may want to access other e-mail
accounts (for example, a Yahoo or Earthlink e-mail account) that send and receive
messages using your GPRS or GSM connection.
If you are setting up a new e-mail account and have a well-known ISP such as
Earthlink or Mindspring, many of the required settings during the account setup
are automatically configured.
For other ISPs, you need the following information:
■ The protocol used for incoming mail, such as POP or IMAP
■ The name of the incoming mail server
■ The name of the outgoing mail (SMTP) server
■ Whether your e-mail account requires any encryption, such as APOP or ESMTP
■ Your e-mail address and password
■ The login script (if any) that you need for connecting to your ISP or mail server
NOTE
Information about your e-mail account is available from the e-mail provider.
Depending on the type of e-mail service you have, you may be able to access this
information by going to the e-mail provider’s web site or by contacting the provider’s
customer support.
Creating a network e-mail account
You create a new account in Account Setup, which guides you through the process.
To create a network e-mail account:
1. Press Function + Menu , select Accounts, and select Account Setup.
2. Tap New.
