If you've activated data services on your Treo 650 smartphone, you're ready to set up
®
the VersaMail application on your phone. You can use the VersaMail account with
your your wireless service provider email account. You may also be able use VersaMail
with a corporate account.
Before you can use the VersaMail software with a given email account, you need
to set up a Versamail account. If you have multiple email accounts, you must set up a
VersaMail account for each one. You have three setup options:
• On a Windows computer, if the email account is already set up on your computer—
for example, if you use Outlook Express on your computer to access your Earthlink
account—you can transfer the account settings to your phone in just a few steps.
• On a Windows computer, if this is a new account, you can quickly set up the
account on your computer and synchronize the information on your phone.
• For either a new or an existing account, you can set up the account directly on
your phone.
