6.5 E-mail Setup Wizard
Windows Mobile's E-mail Setup wizard walks you through the process of setting
up your e-mail account. It has an Auto Setup feature which can automatically set
up your e-mail account based on the e-mail address and password that you enter,
if your e-mail provider settings are preconfigured on your device. If the settings
are not found on your device, Auto Setup then attempts to retrieve the settings
online for which you may be charged when your device connects to the Internet
and downloads them. If it cannot find the e-mail settings online, you need to enter
them manually.
Note
For more information about setting up your company Outlook e-mail account, see
