Messaging is where all of your e-mail accounts and your text message account are located.
You can send and receive Outlook e-mail, Internet e-mail through an Internet service
provider (ISP), and text messages. You can also access e-mail from work using a VPN
connection. For more information about e-mail and text messages, see Help on the device.
