E-mail

Note: If your e-mail is already synchronized, go to "Sending an E-mail" on page 63.
The E-mail program is used to send and receive e-mail on your EP10. It also provides access to
text messages.
To send and receive e-mail, you'll need to synchronize your PC or connect to a Post Office Protocol 3
(POP3) or Internet Message Access Protocol 4 (IMAP4) mail server.
For each of these methods, you need to set up an e-mail account with one exception – Outlook e-mail ac-
counts are set up by default.

Folders

If you use an Outlook e-mail account, messages in the Inbox folder in Outlook are automatically synchro-
nized with your EP10. You can use ActiveSync on your PC to synchronize additional folders. The folders and
messages you move are mirrored on the server.
For POP3 accounts, if you move e-mail messages to a folder you create, the link between the messages on
the EP10 and the copies on the mail server are broken. When you next connect, the mail server will recog-
nize that the messages are missing from the EP10 Inbox folder and delete them from the server, preventing
duplication of messages. Keep in mind however that you will not have further access to messages that you
moved to folders from anywhere except with the EP10.
For IMAP4 accounts, the folders you create and the messages you move are reflected on the server, making
messages available any time whether you connect to your mail server from your EP10 or your PC.
