Email Setup
The MC67’s Messaging application lets users access and manage multiple email accounts simultaneously in
one convenient location. To send and receive email messages through an ISP (Internet Service Provider)
account, or to use the MC67 to access corporate email through a VPN (Virtual Private Network), first set up an
IMAP or POP account.
•
IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) - This mail retrieval protocol is frequently used in large
networks and commercial and institutional settings. IMAP4 is the current standard.
•
POP (Post Office Protocol) - This protocol is supported by most ISPs and is currently more common
among consumer applications. POP3 is the current standard.
Setting Up an IMAP or POP Account
When setting up an IMAP or POP account, the MC67 may be able to retrieve account settings automatically, or
the user may need to enter certain settings manually.
