Sending Mail Remotely

In addition to exchanging mail messages with your desktop computer, you can send and receive

mail from a remote mail server by setting up an e-mail account with a service provider.

Note:

If you're setting up an Internet mail account with an ISP (Internet Service Provider), the ISP

must use a POP3 mail server and an SMTP mail gateway.

For dial-up connections, you'll require an internal PCMCIA type modem card or external modem for

the PA970. You'll also need to set up the remote connection on the PA970 using the Connections

program.

For wireless connections, you'll require an RF card for the PA970. You'll also need to set up the

remote connection on the PA970 via the Network setting.

Multiple mail services can be utilized to obtain

mail. For each mail service you will access, first

set up and name each mail service. If using the

same service to connect to different mailboxes,

set up and name each mailbox connection.

In the InBox on the PA970, tap Compose, Options,

the Services tab, and then the Add button.

A setup wizard will walk you through the steps.

The software for creating an Internet Mail connec-

tion to an ISP is pre-installed on the PA970.

Mail received via dial-up connection appears in the InBox folder on the PA970, together with the

mail you synchronize with your desktop computer. Messages received remotely are linked to your

mail server rather than to your desktop computer.

You can work online, which means that you read and respond to messages while connected to the

server. Messages are sent as soon as you tap Send, which saves space on your device.

You can also work offline. Once you've downloaded new message headers or partial messages,

you can disconnect from the server and then decide which message to download completely. The

next time you connect, InBox automatically downloads the complete messages you've marked for

retrieval and sends the messages you've composed.
